I think that was is now called the Ashok Lounge...
There are 4 lounges that I saw:
1. The Clipper Lounge downstairs (didn't go inside but it looked like it had been renovated or something.
2. The Ashok lounge which looked like a little room leading into a restaurant
3. The ITC Sheraton Lounge...went there because its the only one that allows smoking. The "Smoking Section" is just two rows of seats on one side with no separation from the non-smoking section.
4. The Air India Maharajah lounge
The last three were upstairs....and I do mean stairs because they didn't seem to be accessible via escalator or lifts.
The ITC Sheraton lounge was definitely one of the Diner's club lounges as I saw a couple of folks getting in that way, and they did have paid access as well, but I didn't ask how much. Food was passable - few snacks. Foster's/Kingfisher beer and a bartender.
