MUMBAI: The Mumbai bench of National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) on Tuesday directed the bankruptcy resolution professional of Jet Airways (India) Ltd to discuss the grounded airline’s salary payment issues with its Committee of Creditors (CoC).
The airline, which has not flown since 18 April, has held back salaries since January to a section of its staff, including pilots, engineers and general managers. It has also deferred salaries since March to all employees, as it battled financial woes before finally suspending operations due to an acute fund crunch.
The tribunal, consisting of judges V.P. Singh and Ravikumar Duraisamy, will hear the case again on 8 August.
