Delhi Domestic Airport to NZM Rail Station

Hi all,
How long will it take to go to Nizamuddin Rail Station from Delhi Domestic Airport? I've got 2 hours gap between my flight time and train time. I am planning to take only carry on luggage to save time. Do you all think I will be able to make it within 2hours? Or should I plan for the next train?
Thanks,
Newbie2

What time of day are you traveling? It could easily take an hour and half. If the next train isn't much later, I would recommend doing that, especially as flights aren't always on time.

My flight arrives at Delhi at 9:30a.m. and I was wishfully thinking if I can catch the 11:30 a.m. train fron NZM rail station.

Thanks for your suggestion.

You will do well to get out of airport terminal itself by 10.30 am. Then the station is atleast 1 hr away.
You may be able to reach station at best but not to the Platform

Thanks! I will then take the Jan Shatabdi train at 3:30 p.m. to reach Haridwar at 7:30 p.m. I was wondering if I could reach Haridwar earlier than that by catching the 11:30 train. But it seems impossbile from your comments.
Thanks again!

Impossible. You will land on the new runway. 20 min taxi time. 15 min baggage reclaim, then another 5 min for the taxi!
Out of the door roughly by 1015. Too close for comfort
