This can easily be achieved and exceeded by the active inclusion of women entrepreneurs, businesses and professionals in all walks of life: by empowering our influence on decision-making. (source: wicci.in) NATIONAL AVIATION COUNCIL • The civil aviation industry in India has emerged as one of the fastest growing industries in the country during the last three years. India has become the third largest domestic aviation market in the world and is expected to overtake UK to become the third largest air passenger market by 2024. • Growth in the Aviation Industry is essential to the Indian economy; however it is struggling to keep pace with the growing demand in aviation and the situation will soon deteriorate causing delays, with the expected rise in air travel. • We as women in Indian aviation need to work towards developing a collaboration for sustainable growth which meets the rising demand and innovation trends, balanced with action to reduce environmental and community impacts.

Swaminathan World Scientific Publishing Company: 2009 CHAPTER 6 INDIA’S AVIATION SECTOR: DYNAMIC TRANSFORMATION John Kasarda* and Rambabu Vankayalapati† Introduction India is no longer a country of promise — it has arrived, and in a big way. Not long ago regarded as a relatively closed and staid demographic giant, the nation has emerged over the past decade as “open for business,” quickly joining global leaders in everything from IT and BPO to financial services and medical tourism. As India’s integration into the global economy accelerated, so did its annual GDP growth rate, averaging over 8% since 2003. In the fiscal year 2007, its GDP expanded by 9.4% and was forecasted to remain above 9% for the next three years.40 Foreign investment concurrently mushroomed, posi- tioning India as number two in the world (behind China) as the preferred location for FDI. Net capital inflows (FDI plus long-term commercial debt) exceeded USD24 billion. The country’s explosive economic growth has yielded a burgeoning middle class in which higher incomes have led to sharp rises in purchases of automobiles, motorbikes, computers, mobile phones, TVs, refrigerators, and branded con- sumer goods of all types. Rapidly rising household incomes have also generated a burst in air travel, both domestic and international. In just three years from 2003–2004 to 2006–2007, commercial aircraft enplanements in India rose from 48.8 million to nearly 90 million, a growth rate of almost 25% annually.
