NEW DELHI: The Tata Group on Monday got aviation regulator DGCA’s nod for merging Vistara into Air India and erstwhile AirAsia India into AI Express. Now, only the nod for foreign investment by partner Singapore Airlines into AI is needed to meet the target of completing the integration by the year-end. With this, the group says it has “concluded the harmonisation of operating procedures across its key functions.” Air India (Vistara merged into it) will be the full service carrier and AI Express (the other airline merged into it) will be its low-cost arm.
