Service Sector in India

Service Sector in India today accounts for more than half of

India's GDP. According to data for the financial year 20062007, the share of services, industry, and agriculture in
India's GDP is 55.1 per cent, 26.4 per cent, and 18.5 per
cent respectively. The fact that the service sector now
accounts for more than half the GDP marks a watershed in
the evolution of the Indian economy and takes it closer to the
fundamentals
of
a
developed
economy.
Services or the "tertiary sector" of the economy covers a
wide gamut of activities like trading, banking & finance,
infotainment,
real
estate,
transportation,
security,
management & technical consultancy among several others.
The various sectors that combine together to constitute
service industry in India are:
Trade
Hotels and Restaurants
Railways
Other Transport & Storage
Communication (Post, Telecom)
Banking
Insurance
Dwellings, Real Estate
Business Services
Public Administration; Defence
Personal Services
Community Services
Other Services
There was marked acceleration in services sector growth in
the eighties and nineties, especially in the nineties. While the
share of services in India's GDP increased by 21 per cent
points in the 50 years between 1950 and 2000, nearly 40 per

cent of that increase was concentrated in the nineties. While

almost all service sectors participated in this boom, growth
was fastest in communications, banking, hotels and
restaurants, community services, trade and business
services. One of the reasons for the sudden growth in the
services sector in India in the nineties was the liberalisation
in the regulatory framework that gave rise to innovation and
higher
exports
from
the
services
sector.
The boom in the services sector has been relatively
"jobless". The rise in services share in GDP has not
accompanied by proportionate increase in the sector's share
of national employment. Some economists have also
cautioned that service sector growth must be supported by
proportionate growth of the industrial sector, otherwise the
service sector grown will not be sustainable. In the current
economic scenario it looks that the boom in the services
sector is here to stay as India is fast emerging as global
services hub.

Aviation Industry in India

Aviation Industry in India is one of the fastest growing
aviation industries in the world. With the liberalization of the
Indian aviation sector, aviation industry in India has
undergone a rapid transformation. From being primarily a
government-owned industry, the Indian aviation industry is
now dominated by privately owned full service airlines and
low cost carriers. Private airlines account for around 75%
share of the domestic aviation market. Earlier air travel was
a privilege only a few could afford, but today air travel has
become much cheaper and can be afforded by a large
number
of
people.
The origin of Indian civil aviation industry can be traced back
to 1912, when the first air flight between Karachi and Delhi
was started by the Indian State Air Services in collaboration
with the UK based Imperial Airways. It was an extension of
London-Karachi flight of the Imperial Airways. In 1932, JRD
Tata founded Tata Airline, the first Indian airline. At the time
of independence, nine air transport companies were carrying
both air cargo and passengers. These were Tata Airlines,
Indian National Airways, Air service of India, Deccan
Airways, Ambica Airways, Bharat Airways, Orient Airways
and Mistry Airways. After partition Orient Airways shifted to
Pakistan.
In early 1948, Government of India established a joint sector
company, Air India International Ltd in collaboration with Air
India (earlier Tata Airline) with a capital of Rs 2 crore and a
fleet of three Lockheed constellation aircraft. The inaugural
flight of Air India International Ltd took off on June 8, 1948 on
the Mumbai-London air route. The Government nationalized
nine airline companies vide the Air Corporations Act, 1953.
Accordingly it established the Indian Airlines Corporation

(IAC) to cater to domestic air travel passengers and Air India

International (AI) for international air travel passengers. The
assets of the existing airline companies were transferred to
these two corporations. This Act ensured that IAC and AI had
a monopoly over the Indian skies. A third government-owned
airline, Vayudoot, which provided feeder services between
smaller cities, was merged with IAC in 1994. These
government-owned airlines dominated Indian aviation
industry
till
the
mid-1990s.
In April 1990, the Government adopted open-sky policy and
allowed air taxi- operators to operate flights from any airport,
both on a charter and a non charter basis and to decide their
own flight schedules, cargo and passenger fares. In 1994,
the Indian Government, as part of its open sky policy, ended
the monopoly of IA and AI in the air transport services by
repealing the Air Corporations Act of 1953 and replacing it
with the Air Corporations (Transfer of Undertaking and
Repeal) Act, 1994. Private operators were allowed to provide
air transport services. Foreign direct investment (FDI) of up
to 49 percent equity stake and NRI (Non Resident Indian)
investment of up to 100 percent equity stake were permitted
through the automatic FDI route in the domestic air transport
services sector. However, no foreign airline could directly or
indirectly hold equity in a domestic airline company.
By 1995, several private airlines had ventured into the
aviation business and accounted for more than 10 percent of
the domestic air traffic. These included Jet Airways Sahara,
NEPC Airlines, East West Airlines, ModiLuft Airlines,
Jagsons Airlines, Continental Aviation, and Damania
Airways. But only Jet Airways and Sahara managed to
survive the competition. Meanwhile, Indian Airlines, which
had dominated the Indian air travel industry, began to lose
market share to Jet Airways and Sahara. Today, Indian

aviation industry is dominated by private airlines and these

include low cost carriers such as Deccan Airlines, GoAir,
SpiceJet etc, who have made air travel affordable.
Airline industry in India is plagued with several problems.
These include high aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices, rising
labor costs and shortage of skilled labor, rapid fleet
expansion, and intense price competition among the players.
But one of the major challenges facing Indian aviation
industry is infrastructure constraint. Airport infrastructure
needs to be upgraded rapidly if Indian aviation industry has
to continue its success story. Some steps have been taken in
this direction. Two of India's largest airports-Mumbai and
New Delhi-were privatized recently. Two greenfield airports
are coming up at Bangalore and Hyderabad in southern
India. Investments are pouring into almost all aspects of the
industry, including aircraft maintenance, pilot training and air
cargo services. The future prospects of Indian aviation sector
look bright.

Jet Airways was incorporated as an "air taxi" operator on 1

April 1992. It started commercial airline operations on 5 May
1993 with a fleet of 4 Boeing 737-300 aircraft. In January 1994
a change in the law enabled Jet Airways to apply for scheduled
airline status, which was granted on 4 January 1995. It began
international operations to Sri Lanka in March 2004. Plans to
acquire rival Air Sahara, announced in January 2006, after
some rough patches deal got through. The airline is owned by
Tailwinds (owned by Naresh Goyal) (80%) and public shares
(20%) and has 10,017 employees (at March 2007).[1]
Naresh Goyal, who already owned Jetair (Private) Limited
(which provided sales and marketing for foreign airlines in
India) set up Jet Airways as a full-service scheduled airline that
would give competition to state-owned Indian Airlines. Indian
Airlines had enjoyed a monopoly in the domestic market
between 1953, when all major Indian air transport providers
were nationalised under the Air Corporations Act (1953), and
January 1994, when the Air Corporations Act was repealed,
following which Jet Airways received scheduled airline status.
[citation needed]
Jet Airways and Air Sahara were the only private airlines to
survive the Indian business downturn of the early 1990s. In
January 2006, Jet Airways announced that it would buy Air
Sahara making it the biggest takeover in Indian aviation
history. The resulting airline would have been the country's
largest[3] but the deal fell through in June 2006. However, a
modified deal did go through eventually in January 2007.

Lower wages in India compared with the West are not the only
explanation for Jet Airways' relatively low cost base by
international standards. The company has also been able to
lower its costs by "sweating its assets", i.e. getting the
maximum utilisation out of its aircraft fleet by minimising
turnaround times between flights, similar to the leading
European/North American low-cost, "no frills" carriers. This
has partly helped it to offset the high costs of the airport
infrastructure as well as jet fuel in India, which are higher in
India than the international average.

Brand ownership:
Jet Airways does not own its brand. The brand is owned by
Jetair Enterprises Ltd., a separate company substantially
owned by Naresh Goyal, which licenses the brand to the airline
in return for an annual payment. This arrangement is very
similar to the terms governing the use of the "easy" brand by
the easyJet Airline Company Limited (the name under which
easyJet has been incorporated). Under the aforesaid
arrangement, Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou, the founder and largest
individual shareholder of easyJet Airline Co. Ltd. has sole
ownership of the "easy" brand and licenses it to that airline for
a specified payment. This kind of arrangement is of vital
importance should the concerned airlines become the subject
of a hostile takeover bid because the bidder[s] will not
automatically acquire ownership of their takeover target's
brand and without access to the brand the takeover target will
be less valuable.

Place:
The airline operates over 340 flights daily across 44
destinations within India and also operates flights to Nepal, Sri
Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, United Kingdom, Thailand,
Belgium, United States of America & Canada on one of the
youngest and best maintained fleets. Jet Airways plans to
extend its international operations further in North America,
Europe, Africa & Asia in the coming years with the induction
of wide-body aircraft into its fleet.
