Even as there is no clarity on whether the shortlisted bidders for Jet Airways will be interested in investing in the airline as the deadline for the bidding process comes to an end on May 10, Jason Unsworth, a UK-based entrepreneur, who had earlier offered to take over the grounded carrier, has now claimed to have put in a formal bid.
He has now also claimed that his six-member consortium includes former Jet chairman Naresh Goyal and submitted the expression of document (EoI) on Tuesday night. He claimed to have funding support from Future Trend Capital, Redcliffe Capital and others as well.
“Last night our consortium submitted to State Bank of India the EoI document, with the listed consortium below. Jason Unsworth (Atmosphere Airlines), Lakshay Uttam (My World Ventures), Lalit Verma (Future Trend Capital), Dhiiraj (Redcliffe Capital), Naresh Goyal (Jetair), Sachin Nalawade (Mallhar Hospitality & Events),” Unsworth wrote on microblogging site Twitter.
