A new entrant in the Indian aviation industry should focus on the passenger market by launching a low-cost airline. India has strong growth potential for aviation due to its large and young population and growing economy. Passenger traffic and the number of airlines have increased significantly in recent years. However, the industry remains consolidated among a few major players, leaving room for a new entrant to target price-conscious travelers and gain market share. Foreign investment rules also allow up to 49% equity for domestic air transport services, providing access to international capital.
