MUMBAI: The India Aviation Industry, merely two years back, was one which held great potential to attract investors and the biggest aviation companies of the world to woo India‘s aviation biggies. But the industry witnessed a drastic sprawl in past one year. Cut to present, things have drastically changed and the experts blame not only companies but also with the civil aviation ministry and their policies largely responsible for the situation.

As the aviation industry struggles to get back to the pace, NewsX examines the fading sunrise industry with a panel of experts in a special half hour programme called AVIATION GROUNDED!

At a time when the world is slashing it to support the meltdown hit aviation industry, AVIATION GROUNDED! will deep dive into the various aspects such as poor infrastructure, Airport Development Fee and increase in Airport charges. The programme will also highlight the impact of the stupendous increase in ATF charges from 220 rupees per ticket in 2004 to the current taxes of 1800-3000 rupees, proving that low cost travel in India just cannot survive.

Join a panel of experts which include Kapil Kaul, CEO, The Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation, Rajiv Pratap Rudy, Ex Civil Aviation Minister and Capt.
A.Ranganathan, Aviation safety Specialist, as they discuss the industry which got grounded before the take off.

To know more, tune in to AVIATION GROUNDED! Tonight at 8:30 PM only on NewsX.
