Top executives of troubled airline Jet Airways, including head honcho Vinay Dube and his deputy, chief financial officer Amit Agarwal, resigned on Tuesday citing “personal reasons”, leaving everyone guessing whether a new team was ready in the wings to take their place.
If that were not the case, the senior-level exits would deepen concerns that the airline, which halted services on April 17, might never take to the skies again.
Besides Dube and Agarwal, company secretary Kuldeep Sharma put in his papers — and the squiggle of a signature at the bottom of the communication to the stock exchanges put out by an “authorised signatory” left no one any wiser about who really was handling day-to-day affairs at the grounded airline. All the communications to the exchanges till date have been made by Sharma.
