Tata-Singapore Airlines joint venture, which is working on to launch a full-service carrier in the third quarter of the fiscal, is in advanced stage of discussions with aircraft maintenance services provider, Air Works for servicing its fleet.
National carrier Air India and MAS-GMR Aerospace Engineering are also eyeing the contract, according to sources.

Though other services providers, like Air India and MAS-GMR MRO, are also actively pursuing the deal, the contract is most likely to go Air Works, they said.
