32. New government initiatives to develop India’s potential as the world’s fastest growing aviation market…… Changing regulation policies Increased privatization of airports The government is planning to raise the foreign direct investment (FDI) limit to 74% for non-scheduled airline operations, helicopter services and regional airlines using small aircraft. The current FDI ceiling for airline services is 49%. In 1997 the Government of India published a policy document to open up existing airports to domestic and foreign private investors in order to meet the significant costs involved in developing India’s airports to keep pace with the growth in air traffic. In Sep 2003, Govt leased out Delhi and Mumbai airports to the private sector as part of its extensive modernisation and growth plan for the sector.

35. EXPECTATIONS OF THE INDUSTRY FROM GOVERNMENT… The industry’s wish list includes : The Indian aviation sector’s double-digit growth has been the fastest in the world. But the airlines have not made much out of the profitless growth, with most players stepped deep in red. Lowering taxes on aviation turbine fuel (ATF) which is 35% of the operating cost of airlines. As per international standards, it is 10-15% of the operating cost. Extending exemption of withdrawal tax on lease rentals of aircraft Relaxing fringe benefit tax (FBT) Removing service taxes on first and business-class travellers. Reduction in landing charges – In India low cost carriers (LCC) pay the same as full service airlines. As per international standards, it is lower for LCCs.

The study says that the civil aviation sector is also set to become a Rs 55,000-crore industry by the same time. The industry is expected to add 130 airliners to its current fleet of 270 airliners, which would, in turn, increase manpower demand
