In order to secure representation of the Airports Authority of India on the Board of the SPV, the Concession Agreement will include a provision for issue of a golden share in accordance with a Shareholders' Agreement that would form part of the Concession Agreement.
Bids are invited for the project on the basis of the premium in the form of revenue share to the authority for award of the concession.
Candidates can be awarded just two airports out of the six airports to be awarded by the authority and no more than one airport from Kolkata, Chennai and Ahmedabad airports.
