Vistara prepares to merge staff into Air India
India’s Vistara airline has begun making plans to merge its staff into Air India Ltd, as the country’s industrial Tata family combines the two carriers to rebuild its aviation empire and take on market leader IndiGo.
“The process of integration of the staff has started,” Vistara Chief Executive Officer Vinod Kannan told reporters in Mumbai on Monday. He expects regulatory clearances to be completed by April 2024, confirming an earlier report that Indian regulators have raised antitrust concerns.
