Air-India has decided to tap the capital market, in the next three months for funding its expansion plans, Air-India's Commercial Manager K D Row said on Thursday. The state-owned airline also plans to start direct India-US flights in early 2007, he added. | |
| "The IPO will be to fund the massive expansion and fleet acquisition programmes of Air-India," he said. Air-India also plans to increase services of its low-cost airliner Air-India Express to the Gulf countries. |
