  • 669419-1 EFFICIENCY of AIRLINES in INDIA ABSTRACT This Paper Measures the Technical Efficiency of Various Airlines Operating In
    Natarajan and Jain Efficiency of Airlines in India EFFICIENCY OF AIRLINES IN INDIA Ramachandran Natarajan, College of Business, Tennessee Technological University, Cookeville TN, 38505, U.S.A. E-Mail: [email protected] , Tel: 931-372-3001 and Ravi Kumar Jain, Icfai Business School, IFHE University, Hyderabad-501203 (AP) India. E-Mail: [email protected] , Mobile: 91+94405-71846 ABSTRACT This paper measures the technical efficiency of various airlines operating in India over a ten-year period, 2001-2010. For this, the Input Efficiency Profiling model of DEA along with the standard Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is used to gain additional insights. The study period is divided into two sub-periods, 2001-2005 and 2006-2010, to assess if there is any impact on the efficiency of airlines due to the significant entry of private operators. The study includes all airlines, private and publicly owned, both budget and full service, operating in the country offering scheduled services on domestic and international routes. While several studies on efficiency of airlines have been conducted globally, a research gap exists as to similar studies concerning airlines in India. This paper addresses that gap and thus contributes to the literature. Key Words: Airlines in India, DEA analysis, Input efficiency profiling, Productivity analysis, Technical efficiency. Introduction The civil aviation industry in India has come a long way since the Air Corporation Act was repealed in the year 1994 allowing private players to operate in scheduled services category. Several private players showed interest and were granted the status of scheduled carriers in the year 1995. However, many of those private airlines soon shut down.

  • Recent Trend in Indian Air Transport with Reference to Transport Economics and Logistic
    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Recent Trend in Indian Air Transport with Reference to Transport Economics and Logistic Dr Vijay Kumar Mishra, Lecturer (Applied Economics), S.J.N.P.G College, Lucknow Air transport is the most modern means of transport which is unmatched by its speed, time- saving and long- distance operation. Air transport is the fastest mode of transport which has reduced distances and converted the world into one unit. But it is also the costliest mode of transport beyond the reach of many people. It is essential for a vast country like India where distances are large and the terrain and climatic conditions so diverse. Through it one can easily reach to remote and inaccessible areas like mountains, forests, deserts etc. It is very useful during the times of war and natural calamities like floods, earthquakes, famines, epidemics, hostility and collapse of law and order. The beginning of the air transport was made in 1911 with a 10 km air mail service between Allahabad and Naini. The real progress was achieved in 1920 when some aerodromes were constructed and the Tata Sons Ltd. started operating internal air services (1922). In 1927 Civil Aviation Department was set up on the recommendation of Air Transport Council. Flying clubs were opened in Delhi, Karachi, Calcutta (now Kolkata) and Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1928. In 1932 Tata Airways Limited introduced air services between Karachi and Lahore. In 1932, Air India began its journey under the aegis of Tata Airlines, a division of Tata Sons Ltd.
