The June issue focuses on ‘Emergence of FBOs in India’ wherein we find that the aviation industry and general avia- tion in particular, has been clamouring for infrastructure fa- cilities, including government push for setting up fixed-based operations. Sucheta Das Mohapatra and R. Chandrakanth in their article find that the industry has been strapped consid- erably for want of FBOs, while there has been a good deal of aircraft acquisitions in the general aviation sector. No doubt, the opportunities for opening FBOs in India exist, the fillip has to come from the government now. On similar lines, in another article Chandrakanth dwells on how secondary markets in the civil aviation sector will play a decisive role in shaping airline business.

The air base, situated 10 km from the Quaid-e-Azam International Airport in the port city of Karachi, was attacked at about 2230 hours on May 22, killing at least a dozen people and injuring several others. An adjacent naval facility PNS Mehran was also targeted where two navy planes were destroyed. The Pakistani Taliban, along with Al-Qaeda, has vowed to avenge the death of Osama bin Laden, who was killed in a US Special Forces operation in Abbottabad on May 2 this year.

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.

  • Captain G. R. Gopinath Is a Pioneer of Low Cost Air Travel in India. He Is the Founder of the Low Cost Airline Air Deccan
    Captain G. R. Gopinath is a pioneer of low cost air travel in India. He is the founder of the low cost airline Air Deccan. Captain G. R. Gopinath is a graduate of the National Defence Academy and has served the Indian Army. Personal He was educated in a village school and at Sainik School, Bijapur. After completing school, he got selected to the NDA (National Defence Academy) and went on to be commissioned in the Indian Army where he spent the next eight years and fought in the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation war. He quit the Army to come back to his village he became a farmer who converted barren land in to proper plantation. Next, he started the Malnad Mobikes(Enfield dealership)and opened a hotel in Hasan. G.R Gopinath made his foray in the aviation sector way back in 1995; at a time when domestic aviation was largely monopolized and strict government regulations were the norm. He identified the potential which the helicopter charter business had in India. With his entrepreneurial skills coupled with the technical skills of his ex-army friends, he launched ‘Deccan Aviation’ – a dedicated, customer focused heli-charter Company. The idea of a low cost airline came to Gopinath one day while flying from Bangalore to Goa. With rising incomes and increased spending power of Indians, affordable and reliable air travel too has the potential to acquire a mass consumption base. The result was Air Deccan, India’s first low cost, no frill airline, which was launched on the strength of a simple dream.

    REGIONAL DEVELOPMENTS THROUGH AVIATION IN INDIA—CREATION OF NEW REGIONAL AIRPORTS AND REGIONAL AIRLINES —CreationRegionalCurrent Developments in Air and SpaceDevelopments Lawof new Regional through airports aviation and Regionalin India airlines Debabrat Mishra* Introduction One of the fastest growing aviation industries in the world is Indian Aviation Industry. With the liberalization of the Indian aviation sector, a rapid revolution has undergone in Indian aviation industry. Primarily it was a government-owned industry, but now it is dominated by privately owned full service airlines and low cost carriers. Around 75% share of the domestic aviation market is shared by private airlines. Earlier only few people could afford air travel, but now it can be afforded by a large number of people as it has become much cheaper because of stiff competition. The civil aviation traffic has seen an unprecedented traffic in the past few years on account of booming Indian economy, growing tourism industry, and entry of low cost carriers in the private sector, liberalization of international bi-lateral agreements and liberalization of civil aviation policy. In future also the civil aviation traffic is expected to grow at the same pace despite current slowdown due to global recession. But airport infrastructure has not kept pace with the growth of the civil aviation traffic. This has resulted in congestion and inefficient services in major airports, limited landing slots, inadequate parking bays and congestion during peak hours for airlines. Development of quality infrastructure will have an impact on international competitiveness and economic growth. This requires faster development of civil aviation infrastructure on public private partnership mode.

    Paridnya – The MIBM Research Journal, Vol-6 Issue-1 September 2018 Analysis of Z Score For BSE Listed Airline Companies In India Ms. Sayee Kulkarni Assistant Professor, MBA(Finance), NET Kaveri College of Arts, Science and Commerce Karve Road, Pune, [email protected] Abstract The research paper focuses on calculating the Altman’s Z score for bankruptcy prediction for the airline industry in India. The modified Z Score for non manufacturing companies is used for analysis. 6 listed companies namely Jagson Airlines, TAAL enterprises, Global Vectra Helicorp, Spice Jet, Jet Airways, IndiGo Airways and the government owned Air India is considered for analysis. The Z scores for three preceeding years is calculated and analysed. The research paper states that the overall aviation sector is in financial distress . Only IndiGo airways is in the safe zone with a Z score of more than 2.9. All other companies are in financial distress. Keywords- Altman’s Z Score, Airline industry, BSE, bankruptcy prediction. INTRODUCTION the Altman’s Z score model to the BSE listed companies in the airlines sector. Bankruptcy is the failure of a business. It is when a company is unable to honour its DEFINITIONS financial obligations. It is a situation where a Altman’s Z Score: firm is unable to repay debts to its creditors.
