Chief Operating Officer, Sanjiv Kapoor will be leaving the company effective October 31, 2015 after two years with the organisation.
The only two truly successful private airlines in India - Jet Airways and IndiGo - have been set up and run by people who knew the ins and outs of the trade well before they took to the skies.
National carrier Air India became part of the 27-member global airlines grouping Star Alliance, as budget airline AirAsia India launched operations and Tata-SIA joint venture carrier Vistara received the flying permit and announced its intentions to start operations from January 9.
Vistara is keen to take to global skies.
Vistara has poor load factors currently, it needs to bring down fares a bit to improve flight occupancy.
Ratan Tata was the first one to realise that Indian companies had become a prisoner to tradition and needed to radically innovate.
Vistara has fine-tuned strategies to tap the elite class and Jet Airways may lose out on market share in times to come.
India Inc has few leaders who are likely to grab headlines in 2015.
