The plane was bound for Hanyang in China from Abu Dhabi. It landed at the Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International airport for refueling on Sunday night but was detained after the discovery.
Nine crewmembers have been detained for questioning. Reportedly, the plane's crew had not informed the Indian authorities about the arms.
Late in the night, a meeting was held between the airport authorities, customs officials, senior air force officers and the aircraft crew about the issue.
