Supportive regulations needed for aviation growth: Vistara

New Delhi: Airline company Vistara on Tuesday pointed to the need for a supportive supply and regulatory environment in India to realise the aviation sector's potential to generate economic value worth $250 billion per annum by 2025.

Vistara which is a joint venture (JV) between India's TATA Group and Singapore Airlines revealed the figures in a report titled 'Maximising the contribution of aviation to the Indian economy'.

The report, prepared for the airline by the Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation (CAPA), estimated a three-fold increase in domestic air traffic and a potential for the sector to contribute to over five percent in the country's gross domestic product (GDP) by 2025.
