Given that Vistara has only been in business for less than ten years, it is impressive that it can fly domestically and has the second-highest domestic market share. From India, it travels to 11 overseas locations.

Vistara experienced a loss of 2,031 crore in 2021\u20132022 despite earning $5,226 crore in revenue. However, despite this, both stockholders have kept funding the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An essential component of Tata Sons&#8217; strategy to combine its aviation operations is the integration of Vistara and Air India. According to sources, <em>the Tatas and SIA are investigating the possibility of merging Vistara with Air India and have started a due diligence and appraisal process.
