Average

Registration required to connect — look for the sign-in page after joining the network.

Buy an India-specific eSIM (Airtel, Jio, or a global provider like Airalo/Holafly) before landing or from a Terminal 3 arrivals kiosk — Indian carrier data is cheap and far faster than the shared terminal Wi-Fi.

Insider tip

Login requires an OTP sent by SMS plus a 4-digit PIN you set yourself; if your phone can't receive an Indian SMS, skip the self-service portal and go straight to the Wi-Fi help desk in the T3 arrivals hall rather than getting stuck retrying.

WiFi network names and session limits change frequently. Verify current details at the airport information desk or official website.

eSIM for India

Skip the SIM card queue. Activate a data plan before you land and connect the moment you arrive in New Delhi.
