Delhi HC allows Go First lessors to access aircraft for inspection, carry out maintenance
The Delhi High Court on Wednesday allowed leasing companies to access aircraft leased to Go First for inspection and maintenance, though they were still unable to repossess them while the airline’s operations remain stalled, news agencies reported.
Go First’s lessors have made several attempts to reclaim planes for missed payments, filing over 50 requests with the watchdog to allow repossession. The lessors argue the airline has no rights over planes as the leases have been terminated, but India’s government, and the airline, say the bankruptcy law imposes an asset freeze.
