It is actually disclosed fact - It does hurt. but a drop in the larger scheme of things. It was stated that Air India lost around 500 crore INR (80mn USD) in 6 months due to this. the losses of other airlines were max 25 crores (around 4mn USD) and smallest was some few hundred k USD.. Air India lost 7500 crores last year, without this.. You think, this is the biggest problem the Aviation ministry has? Keeping all the chest thumping aside.. if you think so; great economics understanding.Smarty pants, you are already bending backwards by requesting us. Perhaps you dont know things that your establishment is fully aware?
