The scramble to save Jet Airways has led its lenders to explore unsolicited offers made by multiple entities, including UK-based entrepreneur Jason Unsworth, Mumbai-based Darwin Platform Group, London-based AdiGro Aviation and Russian aviation professional Oleg Evdokimov.
It is also considering a takeover proposal from a group of minority shareholders and Jet employees. Under the plan,called the Revival of Jet Airways (ROJA), the grouping has engaged with over 2,300 Jet Airways employees. A survey conducted among 1,354 employees revealed that 70 per cent were willing to take loans equal to 6-18 months’ salary to save Jet Airways. Many even offered to write off their salary dues. In return, they wanted a 51 per cent stake in the airline.
