인도 '적자 국영 항공사'  에어인디아,  타타그룹으로 매각

 

만성 적자에 시달리던 인도의 국영 항공사 에어인디아가 인도 대기업 타타그룹으로 매각된다.

 

8 NDTV 인도 언론과 외신에 따르면 타타그룹의 지주 회사인 타타선스(Tata Sons) 이날 에어인디아 매각 입찰에서 최종 낙찰자로 선정됐다.

 

투힌 칸타 판데이 인도 투자·공공자산관리국 국장은 "타타선스는 에어인디아 지분 100% 확보를 위해 1800억루피( 29천억원) 지불할 "이라고 말했다.

 

Tata Sons will resume control of Air India after bidding $2.4 billion, including equity and debt, the government said on Friday, marking the end of years of struggle to privatize the financially troubled airline.

 

A successful sale of the loss-making national flag carrier will be a major victory for Prime Minister Narendra Modi as it had cost taxpayers an average of nearly $3 million a day for the past decade. It would also bode well for planned stake sales in a slew of state-run firms to bolster government coffers and make India a fully market-driven economy.

 

Talace, a unit of Tata Sons — the holding company for the autos-to-steel Tata conglomerate which owns luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover — will acquire 100% of Air India.
