Centre to make ₹300 crore equity infusion in Alliance Air

Alliance Air, earlier part of Air India, is now owned by AI Assets Holding Ltd (AIAHL), a special purpose vehicle formed by the central government.

The disinvestment-bound Alliance Air operates around 130 flights daily. In recent months, there have been instances of strikes by pilots to protest against non-restoration of salaries to the pre-Covid level and non-payment of allowance, among other issues.

The finance ministry has approved an equity infusion of Rs 300 crore into Alliance Air, the senior civil aviation ministry official told PTI.
