Jyotiraditya Scindia is giving analysts a run for their money. Following his February forecast of growth in domestic air travel breaching pre-Covid-19 levels in two months, 400,000 passengers flew on April 17, the highest for a day in two years. He also launched 400+ flights on regional routes, while getting several states to reduce VAT on jet fuel to 1-4 per cent. We like. We like.
