3 years of Air India under the Tatas: The hits and misses of Maharajah
Live MintAir India, now a Tata group company, completes three years of handover to the Tata group on Jan 27, 2025. Mergers The group started with four airlines, one each which it started in collaboration with AirAsia Bhd and Singapore Airlines and the two which it acquired, Air India and Air India Express. This also saw Singapore Airlines take a 25.1% stake in Air India with Air India Express being its fully owned subsidiary. Singapore AIrlines’ experience in operating two different brands will come in handy to drive both Air India and Air India Express and build co-operation between the two over a period of time. One difference between Air India and IndiGo is that Air India is investing heavily in the ecosystem with a training academy, a first in India which even an airline like IndiGo does not have.
