Yes, if booked by third-party.

From the Air India booking FAQs:

Q. Can I make an online booking with my credit card if I am not
travelling myself?

Answer

If the cardholder is not a part of the traveling party, then the
passenger should possess: A photocopy of both sides of the card, which
will have to be self attested by the card holder authorising the use
of the card for the purchase of the ticket. For security reasons,
please strike out the security CVV digits on the copy of the card.
This photocopy should also contain the name of the passenger, the date
of journey and the sector on which the journey is made. The above
document MUST be produced at the time of check-in. If the passenger
fails to comply with these conditions, Air India reserves the right to
deny the passenger(s) from boarding the flight. Our risk management
team could send you an email from the email address
[email protected], in which you may be asked to send a scanned –
masked credit card copy and the signed letter of authority for
verification purposes. We request your cooperation in replying to such
queries.The details mentioned above do not apply for Net Banking.

There is no request for any other additional form of documentation or ID and is sufficient to use own ID for identification during airport check-in/security/boarding where normally required.
