    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.

In order to have transparency in airfare advertising, Rule 135 of the Aircraft Rules, 1937 has been amended wherein airlines shall display tariff in a conspicuous manner to show the total amount payable by a passenger and a complete break-up of the total amount, indicating the fare, tax, fees or any other charge, if any, separately. Accordingly, scheduled domestic airlines had been asked vide DGCA Circular No. 9/9/2009-IR dated 11 th May, 2009 and 22 nd June, 2009 to amend their respective websites to indicate the airfare in a manner as indicated in the aforesaid para and advise their Travel Agents for similar action. The scheduled domestic airlines have carried out the said amendment. Based on the survey conducted by DGCA and the feedback received from various quarters, it has been observed that: i) There is no uniformity of airfare display on the website. ii) Passenger unfriendly terms have been used in the fare break-up e.g. YQ, YR, WO, etc. iii) The display in the website is not in accordance with the Rule. In view of the above, all the scheduled domestic airlines are required to display the airfare in the following manner on their respective website: Total amount payable by passenger Rs.

  • A Study of Mergers & Acquisitions in Aviation Industry in India and Their
    A Study of Mergers & Acquisitions in Aviation Industry in India and Their Impact on the Operating Performance and Shareholder Wealth Nisarg A Joshi Ahmedabad Institute of Technology Jay M Desai Ahmedabad Institute of Technology ABSTRACT The objective of this paper is to study, why organisations take the inorganic mode of expansion. However, the main focus is on studying the operating performance and shareholder value of acquiring companies and comparing their performance before and after the merger. To conduct a uniform research and arrive at an accurate conclusion, we restrict our research to only Indian companies. To get a perspective on India, we study aviation sector. We will test feasibility that mergers improve operating performance of acquiring companies. However on studying the cases, we conclude that as in previous studies, mergers do not improve financial performance at least in the immediate short term. INTRODUCTION The air travel market grew up originally to meet the demand of business travelers as companies became increasingly wide-spread in their operations. On the other hand, rising income levels and extra leisure time led holidaymakers to travel to faraway places for their vacation. A further stimulus to the air travel market was provided by the deregulation and the privatization of the aviation industry. State- owned carriers that hitherto enjoyed monopoly status were now exposed to competition from private players. However, one development that changed the entire landscape of the industry was the emergence of low cost carriers (LCCs). These carriers were able to offer significantly cheaper fares on account of their low-cost business models and thereby attract passengers who might not otherwise be willing to fly.

  • An Empirical Study of Domestic Airline Industry in India Abstract
    DIMENSIONS OF CUSTOMER SERVICE QUALITY - AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF DOMESTIC AIRLINE INDUSTRY IN INDIA ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Ph. D. (BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION) BY . VIPPAN RAJ DUTTT Under the Supervision of Dr. Mohammed Naved Khan' ; Dr. S C Bansal Senior Lecturer ' , » Associate Professor Department of Business Administration Indian Institute of Management Faculty of Mgt. Studies & Research Lucknow Aligarh Muslim University, Allgarh (India) (India) (Internal Advisor) (External Advisor) DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION FACULTY OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES & RESEARCH ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2008 ABSTRACT Introduction Civil Aviation represents one of the biggest industries worldwide with global airline revenues exceeding US$ 485 billion in 2007 (lATA, 2008b). The industry has moved towards liberalisation in the ownership of national carriers, capacity sharing, price controls and market access, leading to greater competition among airlines. In the de-regulated environment, the customer has many choices, if the first airline does not measure up-to the desired standards of service. Focus on service quality is the need of the hour if the airlines aspire to improve market share and further enhance financial perforniance in domestic and international markets. The airline industry has been a pioneer in the innovative use of Information Technology (IT) (Ghobrial & Trusilov, 2005). E-commerce and IT are changing the nature of the airline business. The dramatic growth of web and self-service technologies facilitate simplified passenger travel involving e-ticketing, automated check-in, common-user self-service kiosks and other passenger, services (Shon, Chen & Chang, 2003). Growth in the air traffic in recent years is due to the spread of low cost service.

College, Jaipur, India **Bindu Jain, Ph.D., Assistant Professor & Senate Member, Maharani’s College, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, India ***Neha Agarwal, Lecturer, MCA Institute, S.S. Jain Subodh P.G. College, Jaipur, India ABSTRACT The revolution in ICTs has profound implications for economic and social development. It has pervaded every aspect of human life whether it is health, education, economics, governance, entertainment etc. The most important benefit associated with the access to the new technologies is the increase in the supply of information. ICTs have cut across the geographic boundaries of the nations and states. Efforts are under way to integrate ICTs to all sectors and developmental activities. Tourism is one such potential area. Tourism and economy are closely interconnected. Thus to improve the facilities supplemented to the visitors using ICT can enhance the tourism resulted in the increase of economy of the nation. Aviation is one of the important factors of tourism industry. If we improve our air transport facilities, tourism industry will definitely be benefited. In our present study we will try to explore some of the ICT facilities that are provided by our aviation system and some are also found in China. We also try to find out some of the lacking facilities in both the countries in order to improve our tourism systems and subsystems including aviation industry.
