“Opportunities in Indian Aviation Sector: An Analysis”

Aviation has been recognized as one of the fastest growing sectors in India. With the modernization, technological development and fleet expansion, the Indian Aviation Sector has experienced drastic changes in the recent past. Now, a large number of people prefer to travel by air transport due to the lack of time and rising disposable income. Consequently, the domestic and international air traffic in the aviation sector has been registering a phenomenal growth over the past few years. In FY 2010, the domestic air traffic stood at approximately 46 million against 40 million in FY 2009, an increase of about 15 per cent. Similarly, the total domestic cargo grew by more than 15 per cent to reach at approximately 390000 tonnes in FY 2010.

As the fuel prices in the country are touching the sky, various private full service carriers have increased the airfare to cover the cost of investment. In order to control the soaring air ticket prices the Indian Government is taking various initiatives to make the air travel affordable for the middle class people. The drastic increase in the air ticket prices and recent Government initiatives has encouraged us to do a trend analysis of air ticket prices in the country and its impact on the passenger traffic. Further, the growing popularity of regional airline services in the country has also prompted us to do a study on the prospects of investing in regional airline services.
