Air India cost-saving measures

Overview

Air India has launched a group-wide cost-saving initiative to combat financial losses caused by high jet fuel prices, airspace closures, and regional conflicts in the Middle East.

Under the ‘One Air India’ integration plan, the Tata Group-owned airline has established a cross-functional team to identify efficiency improvements and review expenses. To strengthen financial oversight, the company implemented a stricter expenditure approval process requiring authorization from the Head of Department, CXO, and CEO. Additionally, the airline introduced ‘PRABHAV – The Value Creator Award’ to reward employees who propose successful ideas for reducing costs, optimizing contracts, or generating new revenue.
