Transit Time Delhi
 
My emirates flight would be landing around 2.30 AM and i am planning to book Indigo to Nagpur at 5.15 AM from Terminal 1 . Will i be able to catch the flight ?

I am flying business so immigration should be around 5 - 10 mins . Any experience ?

Immigration isn't 5-10 mins nowadays due to the additional health checks and potential PCR test requirement (depending where you are coming in from). 2h45min is no good for that and a terminal change.

not advisable at all these days....i would keep a minimum of 4 hours to get though all the covid testing formalities & changing terminals....

Thank you . The next flight i have is around 2 PM hence i didn’t want to wait . Now that i don’t have to do covid testing on arrival i was wondering if i should take a chance .

if you are not subject to covid testing then you should be able to make it in time for your second flight....

I have a vested interest in subject topic. Can you provide additional info (such as a web link) re NEW RULES. Thanks
I will have a transit (international to international at BOM). Will those RULES apply to BOM as well? Thanks.

As far as i know international transit is not allowed in india as of now. You need to cross immigration and then take the next flight .

the new rules are in Delhi Airport Website
