there is only one place in Delhi - VIDP. Handlers are pretty bad but you have to use them or you will be lost - cambata sp. is the big one.
leave plently of spare time to drive to ATC to "sign" the register.
nice place but please be patient - it's the Indain way and they love it...

There is only one parking area on average for corporate stuff, you can ask the ground control for a follow me, provided if required. WHen you pull in there 8 times out of ten, there will be only nose pickers there so you sometimes have to almost park the bird yourself. And like previously stated, allow time to file the flight plan, it is slow and not a "one stop" process. Same with taxi out, can be confussing, ask for a follow me if in doubt.
Cheers
PS. only drink the bottled water.

PULL UP warning
Runway 29, is the new runway, and unless your EGPWS data base has been updated in last 6 mths or so, you will get the PULL UP warning.
Fun place, but as mentioned rather mad at times.
Beware being parked on a "NEW" stand, at an unfinished ramp area, then a need to reposition for Fuel.
Plenty of spare fuel for the unpredicatble holding, at unpublished locations, radar heading, etc, etc.
Have a ball...
