It is not mandatory to do web-check-in before your travel, and airlines will not charge any fee if you do it from the airline's counter at the airport. Web check-in is free if done online, & for most of the airlines, starts web check-in from 24-48 hours before departure and closes 60 minutes before departure.
udChalo strongly recommends to it's customers to complete the web check-in before they reach the airport to avoid a long queue and avoid paying the web check-in charges at the airport.
