Kingfisher Airlines seeks more time to submit revival plan to DGCA

Cash-strapped Kingfisher Airlines, which is yet to pay part dues to its employees, has sought more time to submit a comprehensive revival plan to the aviation regulator DGCA.

The beleaguered carrier has written a letter to civil aviation secretary K N Shrivastava seeking more time to submit its plan to get the suspension of its flying permit revoked, sources said.

In the letter, the liquor baron Vijay Mallya-owned airline is understood to have said it was holding discussions with all stakeholders, including the Airports Authority of India, and its lenders as it had earlier promised to the DGCA.
