It is part of commitments made to the fair trade regulator Competition Commission of India (CCI) to address possible competition concerns arising out of the Vistara merger.
On September 1, CCI approved the proposed merger of Vistara with Air India. It was under a deal wherein Singapore Airlines would also acquire a 25.1 per cent stake in Air India.
