There is more bad news for Jet Airways as pilot union in India are planning to go on a strike on Saturday demanding that they be paid by the airlines.
In March, Indian government urged the public-sector banks to help the private airline to get out of the crisis. The reason for this intervention is that Indian general elections were imminent and the Modi-government didn’t want to deal with the 23,000 jobs that could be lost.
Naresh Goyal was the founder of the company and he along with his family owned 52% of the airline but that stake will change after the debt restructuring.
A consortium of investors led by the State Bank of India (SBI) took control of the company in March.
Things are not looking good as the deadline for the bids have been extended to Friday to find investors that can help save the airline.
