How to Reach ISI Delhi
While booking an auto or a taxi to ISI, mention two
well-known landmarks: Qutab Hotel (ISI is about
200 meters away from the Qutab Hotel) or Katwaria Sarai
(which is the locality where ISI belongs and is directly opposite to the
Katwaria Sarai bus stop). For the exact location click here:

Pre-paid Auto/Taxi:
There are taxi and auto counters at the arrival points run by Delhi Police. "Pre-paid Auto" or "Pre-paid taxi" is prominently displayed on these counters. To book an auto or a taxi at these counters, mention your destination and pay the fare (between 11:00 p.m. to 06:00a.m. the fare is higher). You will get the receipt for the amount you pay. Remember that you should pay only at the counter and not to the driver. They will give you a piece of paper which you have to hand over to the driver only after you are satisfied that you have reached your destination.
International Airport:
Exit customs.
Look for the black and yellow pre-paid taxi service on the left.
If you miss this counter, exit the airport (go down the aisle where people stand on both sides, make a right at the end of the aisle, and then exit the airport.)
Locate the black and yellow pre-paid taxi service immediately outside the exit.
Ask for "Katwaria Sarai" or the "Qutab Hotel" (the general area is Qutab Institutional Area).
The pre-paid taxi should cost roughly 250 INR.
