Government needs to lower taxes on Indian aviation sector, make it more competitive: SpiceJet chief
WASHINGTON: Emphasising the need for a holistic approach, SpiceJet chief Ajay Singh has called for lowering of taxes on the aviation sector to make it more competitive as well as ensure that the costs are in line with the peers.
The Chairman and Managing Director of the budget carrier, which is expanding rapidly, also said that MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) is an area where India can be doing exceedingly well.
In an interview to PTI here last week, Singh said that civil aviation sector in India is highly taxed, which is a major stumbling block in making it globally competitive.
