Australians will be able to fly direct to India's second largest city as part of a new route that's also aimed at boosting local tourism.
The new route will see Air India fly a daily triangulated service from New Delhi to Australia via Sydney and Melbourne alternately.
Services are expected to start on August 29.
NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell says India is an important market for NSW.
Since 2008, visitor numbers from India to NSW have increased by over a third.
"Visitors from India are choosing Sydney and NSW as their holiday destination for many reasons," the premier said.
