With growing revenues, spreading business empire and surging aspirations - all this at a frenetic pace - India Inc is now budgeting to buy private aircraft to ease pressure and save time for the senior management
Three factors are fuelling demand :
One, for entrepreneurs from small towns, it is about business productivity as air connectivity there has not kept pace with their ambitions.
Two, many Indian companies are spreading their business overseas - from Africa to eastern Europe, where direct connectivity is poor
Three, India Inc has grown in size and can afford to buy aircraft, especially since they enhance productivity. Add to this growing demand from the government, especially state governments, which have become stronger and feel the need to stay connected to even remote regions. Also pushing up demand are MNC bosses, lawyers and doctors flying to far-flung areas to meet clients.
