AIRCRAFT CHARTER SPECIALIST EXPANDS INDIA OPERATION

Air charter specialist Hunt&Palmer PLC has stepped up their activity on the Indian sub-continent with the formation of Hunt&Palmer Air Charter India Pvt. Ltd., a new regional subsidiary.

Active in the Indian markets since 2007, the Group’s management has decided that the time is now right to expand operations in the country in order to meet the growing demand for private aviation there.

Speaking from the company’s offices in New Delhi, Hunt&Palmer Air Charter India’s Managing Director Aadesh Batra said, “These are exciting times for Indian aviation and the requirement for private aircraft charter has increased considerably over the last few years. We aim to capitalise on that by building our presence in the region in order to bring the Hunt&Palmer product to a far wider audience.”

Group Director of Corporate Development, Jamie Martin commented “As a company already working the Indian markets we have been watching developments in the region with interest. The Asian economies are amongst the fastest growing in the world at present and we believe now is the time for us to increase our investment here.”

The Indian company currently employs three staff in addition to its management and plans to open further offices in the country as demand for its services increases.
