Welcome to FT!

The last time we got stuck in transit a long time ago, we were stuck in a waiting area for hours on hard chairs with no lounges or clean restrooms
Both BOM and DEL airports have been upgraded a lot since then.
I do not know if now the transit passengers are allowed to stay in the regular departures area with lounges

I vaguely thought we had to clear immigration but that is likely faulty memory
