You were lucky to arrive at the international terminal in Mumbai. It is much nicer. Also IIRC, the domestic terminal does not have pre paid taxi booths.
There will be an IndiGo flight later in the report and as you mentioned it, IndiGo feels like an airline from another country! Doesn't matter the free food since they were not as good as what you can get on the ground anyway!

Indeed, an eye-opener on how the classic Indian airlines function, and ultimately why they fail miserably.
