Air India-Vistara merger advances pending regulatory nods

The proposed merger between Air India and Vistara is underway, and the carrier is awaiting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and other regulatory approvals. When completed, it will give SIA (Singapore Airlines) a 25.1 percent stake in an enlarged Air India Group. The merger is expected to be completed by mid-2025.

As I wrote earlier Air India in its present form cannot rise up to the standards of Vistara and there is a real risk that Vistara’s service (under the Air India flag) will corrode down significantly.

It has been two years since the Air India privatization and over 1.5 years since Tata's got firmly in the saddle. It is time Air India started making visible moves to increase their routes + make a better service stand out + get their old aircraft repaired and refitted with new interiors + retrained their staff. So much to do so little done.
