MUMBAI: Naresh Goyal, founder of Jet Airways (India) Ltd, has offered to infuse ₹250 crore of his own funds into the grounded airline in a new twist to protracted attempts to revive the Mumbai-based carrier.
In a letter addressed to Jet Airways’ employees on Monday, Goyal said he had made the funds available to the banks that now control the airline.
Goyal, who stepped down from the board and chairmanship of Jet Airways in April, said he would invest the funds from Jetair Pvt. Ltd, a company that he controls. Mint has reviewed a copy of the letter.
