Ah, Indian bureaucracy. One time I was doing Vistara to AC DTI in DEL and I tried to go through the airside DTI and got kicked out landside and had to go to the AC check-in desk because I had my AC BP on my phone (in the app) but not a paper copy and the guy controlling the DTI corridor would only look at a paper BP. At least they figured out a way to let you in :-)
