          Rakesh Jhunjhunwala: 70 Planes- Fleet for the new Airline

          Billionaire investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala plans 70 planes for new airline that he announced this month.

          Billionaire investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala is planning on having 70 aircraft within four years for a new airline he wants to set up in India on optimism more people will travel by air.

          The new airline he’s aiming to bring up is sorted to be named as ‘Akasa’.

          The billionaire’s thought

          Jhunjhunwala, is considering investing $35 million. And, he would own 40% of the carrier, expects to get a no-objection certificate from India’s aviation ministry in the next 15 days.

          Indian Domestic carriers.
          The ultra-low cost airline will be called Akasa Air. The team, which includes a former senior executive of Delta Air Lines Inc, is looking at planes that can carry 180 passengers, he said.

          Indian Warren Buffet

          It’s a bold bet by Jhunjhunwala, who’s known locally as India’s Warren Buffett. That too, in a market that has seen some airlines collapse in the face of intense fare wars and high costs.

          Still, what was once the world’s fastest-growing aviation market holds an allure and Jhunjhunwala is looking at opportunities to woo flyers with a brand new carrier offering low fares.

          Beginning fresh

          “For the culture of a company to be frugal you’ve to start off fresh,” Jhunjhunwala said.

          “I’m very, very bullish on India’s aviation sector in terms of demand.”

          Jet Airways | @a2zblog.in

          Even before the pandemic, airlines in India were struggling.

          • Kingfisher Airlines Ltd, once the country’s second-largest domestic carrier, ended operations in 2012.
          • And even, Jet Airways India Ltd, which was recently approved to fly again, collapsed in 2019.

          Indian aviation scenario

          While demand for air travel has been hit globally, India’s aviation industry is at greater risk of delayed recovery as the threat of a third wave of infections looms. Airlines are feeling the impact.

          Vistara boeing Dreamliner | @a2zblog.in

          Vistara, which Singapore Airlines Ltd jointly owns with conglomerate Tata Group, is in discussions with Boeing Co and Airbus SE to delay aircraft deliveries and make changes to the payment timetables.

          Loss amidst covid-19

          IndiGo, India’s largest airline, reported a wider-than-anticipated loss as Covid disruption crimped its revenue.

          Indigo Airlines | @a2zblog.in

          That’s not deterring Jhunjhunwala, who according to Forbes has an estimated net worth of about $4.6 billion.

          “I think some of the increment players may not recover,” he said. “I’ve got some of the best airline people in the world as my partners.”
