POLITICAL FACTORS An unstable political environment - uncertainty in the
minds of the air travellers, regarding travelling to a particular country.
Recent political environment – unstable due to international events and tension with Pakistan.
Most significant political event – 11th September – special significance for the airline industry – aeroplanes were involved.
Trade of Government of 2 countries – may restrict or allow flying into a particular area.
Corruption level – in India there has to be payment of bribe everywhere.
Special Considerations – only government airlines not private.
No flexibility in taking decision because of government influence.

SEED OF DECCAN AVIATION... Captain Gopinath was very impressed by the
large heli-charter industry, when he was trip to Vietnam.
India had only 45 helicopters, India has 2 million foreign tourist annually.
Captain Gopinath launched the helicopter charter business in India under the name of Deccan aviation, with help of captain K J Samuel.
The company started 2 helicopters and capital of Rs. 35 lacs.

COMPANY INTRODUCTION
Air Deccan India's first low cost air line stared in Sept 2003.
It was started by Captain G. R. Gopinath and its first flight took off on 23 August 2003 from Hyderabad to Vijaywada.
The tagline of the airline was "Simply-fly," signifying that it was now possible for the common man to fly.

Cont.. It was known popularly as the common
man's airline, with is logo showing two palms joined together to signify a bird flying.

They assure that their low fares come with high standards of flight safety. They have very stringent safety regulations in place, approved by the regulatory authorities.
The dream of Captain Gopinath was to enable "every Indian to fly at least once in his lifetime.“
Air Deccan offers services like free travel for infants, greater ticketing flexibility, new airport coaches, plush aircraft interiors, ticketing counters and complimentary water.

Air Deccan was indeed the first airline to have brought the concept of e ticketing in India.
The number of passengers carried by Air Deccan India has been constantly increasing from
0.4 million passengers during – 2003 to 2004
9 million passengers during – 2006 to 2007.
The fares for Air Deccan flights were 40% to 50% less than that of other leading full service airlines (FSAs) in the country.

On 25 January 2006, Deccan went public by filing a red herring prospectus with the SEBI.
The resultant severe competition between airlines resulted in almost all the Indian carriers, including Air Deccan, running into heavy losses.
After initially trying to get in fresh capital for running the airline, Captain Gopinath eventually succumbed to pressures for consolidation.
So finally Air Deccan was merge with Kingfisher Airlines.

BUSINESS MODEL OF AIRLINE OPERATION
Offering low fares to stimulate demand.
Low fares help Air Deccan generate new business throughout India – not only in new and under-served markets, but also in established markets that have so far failed to offer Indian middle-class consumers and cost-conscious businesses a choice of sufficiently cost-effective fares.
Air Deccan targets leisure, small business and corporate customers, and seeks passengers from the Indian middle class as well as from the cost-conscious segments of more well off classes.
Apr 13, 2023 29Tolani Institute of Management Studies
Reducing Costs, Increasing Utilization
Provide a no-frills service.
Air Deccan seeks to provide a simple service in exchange for its low fares.
Product and service extras that are not reasonably necessary to the core task of flying passengers safely and efficiently are eliminated.
Apr 13, 2023 30Tolani Institute of Management Studies
Apr 13, 2023 31
Seek high aircraft utilization.
Single-class seating arrangements in its aircraft and follows scheduling, ground handling and operational strategies designed to keep its planes in the air as long as practical every day.
These measures help Air Deccan to increase its available seats flown.
Air Deccan then uses load factor and yield management techniques in order to help maximize the revenues earned from, and help minimize the operating costs associated with, those available seats flown.Tolani Institute of Management
Studies

Providing a safe and on-time service.
There are provision of safe travel to be of essential importance to our service.
We believe that customers also demand on-time service and expect a minimum of delays, flight cancellations, baggage handling errors and other inconveniences.
Increasing ancillary revenues.
In addition to charging for tickets, Air Deccan earns revenues from charging for in-flight, food and drink, selling advertising space on the interior and exterior of its aircraft and in a number of other ways.

1. Air India : India’s Legacy CarrierThe history of Air India is the History of Indian Aviation. Air-India began operating in 1932 as Tata Airlines, named after J. R. D. Tata, its founder. Founded as a small, private, domestic carrier in 1932, Air-India is now government owned. It flies only International routes and has negligible presence felt while catering to the domestic traffic.
2. Indian Airlines : With nationalization of Air Transport in 1953 via Air Corporation Act,1953 , National Flag carriers : Indian and Air India were born. Indian was born from merger of 8 domestic carriers .It caters mainly to domestic routes with some presence felt in neighboring nations. Like Air India it’s a full service carrier. It has a subsidiary ‘Alliance Air’ .Its Symbol is Asoka’s Chakra.

3. Jet Airways :In 1993, Jet commenced its operations after the ban was lift by the government following the repeal of Air Corporation Act.1956. Jet Airways will be the most preferred domestic Airline in India. It will be the automatic first choice carrier for the traveling public and set standards, which other competing airlines will seek to match. It is the only airline that stood the crunch of late 1990’s. Jet started its International Operations in 2004 and carries more than 7 million passengers per annum. 4. Air Sahara:Like Jet, Sahara too began its operations in 1993 after the domestic Air Market was opened by the govt. in 1990’s. Air Sahara Limited is a leading private airline in India, owned by the diversified Sahara India Parivar group. After Jet, it was only airline that could stand the orrential winds of late 1990’s. After series of controversies Air Sahara has been taken over by Jet Airways in May, 2007. The airline is now renamed as “Jet Lite”.

MERGER OF AIR DECCAN AND KINGFISHER
Merger has been a result of Kingfisher Airlines recently acquiring 46 per cent in Deccan Aviation through a two step process.
The new firm will operate two separate brands – Deccan and Kingfisher – and will retain their identities of being a low-cost carrier and a full-service airline, respectively.
Tolani Institute of Management Studies
Apr 13, 2023 64
STRATEGY BEHIND THE MERGER
Kingfisher and Air Deccan have common fleet.
By the merger they are creating 2nd highest market share in the Indian aviation sector.
Deccan has not ordered any long haul planes while Kingfisher has. So once both begin international operations, Kingfisher would fly long haul destinations like the US, while Deccan could look at areas like the neighbouring countries, South East Asia, and the Middle East.
To acquire domestic market
bring down the cost of operation and accelerate the route to profitability by merging into a single entity.

Apr 13, 2023 65
STRATEGY FAILURE
Different Business Model
Operating From different Places
Different Target Segments
Airlines have got approval from the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) to have a common security set up at the airports.
Both Airlines cannot put their individual security set up on Airport.
Both the airlines are in the red. While Deccan Aviation reported a loss of Rs 419 crore for the year ended June 30, 2007, Kingfisher Airlines had a loss of Rs 577 crore on its books for the year ended March 31, 2007. Tolani Institute of Management
