The Guwahati International Airport Limited (GIAL) domestic cargo terminal at Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (LGBIA) has achieved its highest-ever monthly throughput, handling 952 metric tonnes (MT) of cargo in July. This surpasses the previous record of 841 MT, marking a 13.2% increase in overall cargo volume.
According to a GIAL spokesperson, the milestone was driven largely by a 15.26% surge in inbound cargo, with Delhi (DEL) and Bengaluru (BLR) emerging as the top contributors. This growth underscores the terminal’s enhanced operational efficiency and its expanding role as a reliable logistics hub for Northeast India.
On the outbound side, Agartala and Imphal led cargo volumes, followed by Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Kolkata. Outbound cargo grew 5.24%, highlighting the airport’s strategic importance in connecting the region’s goods to key metropolitan markets across the country.
Officials attributed the achievement to streamlined operations, a dedicated workforce, and a customer-focused approach that consistently meets stakeholder expectations. The terminal continues to handle rising volumes while maintaining high service and efficiency standards.
With ongoing infrastructure upgrades and a focus on operational excellence, GIAL is poised to set new benchmarks in cargo handling. As it scales new heights, the LGBIA cargo terminal is steadily strengthening its position as a premier cargo gateway for Northeast India, fostering both regional connectivity and economic growth.
