KIRAN KUMAR GRANDHI - Port of good hope

IIPM INTERNATIONAL - NEW DELHI, GURGAON & NOIDA

KIRAN KUMAR GRANDHI
Port of good hope
The first glimpse for many foreigners coming to India for the Commonwealth Games (CWG) 2010 in New Delhi will be its modern and swanky airport in Delhi. And working hard and fast to complete it on or before time is Kiran Kumar Grandhi, the Managing Director of Delhi International Airport Pvt. Ltd.

If the performance of Grandhi as MD of GMR Hyderabad International Airport (GHAIL) in launching the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Hyderabad, is any indication, the visitors to the CWG 2010 will be pleasantly surprised. The airport was built in record time and will break-even in 2-3 years. To manage the PPP between GMR Group, Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad, the state Government of Andhra Pradesh and Airports Authority of India (AAI), Grandhi had to draw on lessons learnt from his father, GMR Group Chairman & MD Mr. G.M. Rao. Aligning the board members and the government nominees was testing for the young man, just twenty eight years old at that time. The airports segment contributes over one-third of the group’s revenue and growth, and the group plans to expand strongly in non-aero businesses, as well as expand geographically in south-east Asian countries. In addition, the company will set up a 3300 acre SEZ (Special Economic Zone) in Tamil Nadu. The group also plans to venture into the IT arena of Business Services Provisioning.

At the age of 21, Grandhi joined the family business and never looked back. His guiding principles have been perseverance and focus to deliver a quality product that meets world-class standards. Grandhi is surely going to need all this to put up a good face when the visitors start coming in for CWG 2010.
