Note: VISTARA OPERATED FOR ONLY THREE MONTHS i.e. JANUARY-MARCH DURING THE YEAR 2014-15. AIR PEGASUS STARTED ITS OPERATIONS IN JULY 2015 AND TRUJET IN MAY 2015.
If we look at Airline-wise Growth in the number of Domestic Passengers, it is found that the high growth of 21.58 % in the total domestic passengers during 2015-16 is mainly due to the high growth in passengers carried by Alliance Air, Jet Airways, IndiGo and Air Asia. Another factor which led to the high growth is the introduction of the new Airlines such as Vistara, Trujet and Air Pegasus.

In the year 2015-16, domestic market experienced expansion in capacity as well as demand which is evident from the Chart 3 as both RPK & ASK witnessed positive growth in all the months as compared to the corresponding months in the previous year. Also, in most of the months YoY growth in RPK exceeded the YoY growth in ASK implying an improvement in the passenger load factor and hence efficiency except for the months of September, December and February.

A higher PLF implies that an airline is successful in selling available seats. However, higher PLF may not result in higher operating profit. When PLF is less than break-even load factor, the airline in question is running losses. Evidently, in the year 2014-15, only Air India Express, IndiGo and Go Air were operating at a PLF higher than break-even load factor (BELF).

The cost comparison was undertaken before and after adjusting Operating Cost to Average Stage Length. Because of high fixed cost of airlines unit cost decrease as distance increases. Hence a stage length adjustment is necessary for fairer comparison. In the year 2014-15, in terms of cost efficiency of airlines, Air India Express had the least operating cost (adjusted for stage length) per ASK, followed by IndiGo and Go Air.
