Have done it at more than one fairly large Indian airport. Jepp charts (current!) have only a small terminal at the far end. No other taxiways or infrastructure. Halfway down runway on other side is a terminal an order of magnitude larger. Glistening white and silver and shiny and a multitude of parking pays and taxiways.

What was on the chart reflected nothing in reality.
