New and modern airplanes was a departure from the ageing and terribly maintained Indian Airlines. Very fresh and young staff that conducted business with a smile and sense of customer service satisfaction was in contradiction to the past-retirement oldie staff that Indian Airlines pandered with. Remarkable advertisement bordering on the impish theme augmented by an aggressive marketing strategy saw it amongst the leaders in Airline Industry in a very short time. People sought for a KF ticket as a first choice for both domestic and international sector. They maintained a schedule of connecting flights that best suited a Frequent Flier. International passengers adamantly flew KF because of this convenience. They flew into the pick of global destinations that was otherwise available only to leading international Airlines. In brief, KF was everything other than the *Red* it has claimed to slip into now over the last few months!<br /><br />It is highly debatable whether KF has really declined into the *Red* as is termed for a near bankrupt company in Industry circles. No doubt, heavy excesses in the fuel prices, Govt of India least supporting the private Airlines Industry by and large, heavy taxes, no subsidies, no credit facilities and umpteen other reasons are there by way of justification. However,in the case of KF, it becomes a bit hard to give in to these justifications considering the enormous business it attracted and the credit capital KF acceded from banks and other venture capitalists. KF was a positive money making machine for them too and therefore to believe that it was consistently declining in business becomes far fetched.<br /><br />Far fetched because neither did Mr. Vijay Mallaya nor his Son leave grounds to believe that. Their flamboyance, their jet setting life style, their luxurious public life, his personal yacht trips around the globe, his active participation in Formula 1 races around the globe etc. does augment this lack of belief. What more to say that though the KF has been in the *Red* for the past 5 years or so as is claimed, Mr. Mallaya as Chairman of KF has been drawing a 100Cr yearly remuneration without hindrance or remorse. What would one call that other than but absurd! His Son's remuneration has not been disclosed, hence, that remains incognito. <br /><br />To me personally, this entire drama remains nothing more than a hogwash, carefully embroided by Mallaya and Govt of India. It could either be for tax evasion, for entirely pocketing the huge yearly profits by sharing pennies with the political goons or for reconciling the account books between the several business schools he owns. I would best conclude as follows:-<br /><br />***The prince had provided all the appliances of pleasure ...: buffoons,... improvisatori,... ballet-dancers,... musicians,... Beauty,... wine.

This will wake the govt to reform the taxes and also allow FDI in airline industry .KF will definately survive and will be successful in future , if it is incurring losses its cos of the taxes and duties which they have to pay to the govt and airport authorities .<br /><br />Not jus KF all the other carriers are suffering from the same problem , and our govt is still sleeping , inorder to wake them up , this is the best strategy.<br /><br />Mr.Mallya is kindly of good times , but he ll prove that he is a king of bad times too , he ll not let his venture go for a toss.St Hopkins Collegehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01035808140959687734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1725496235293424983.post-43742803288365412322012-04-26T01:01:10.181-07:002012-04-26T01:01:10.181-07:00mallaya once had piles of money, now he only has p...mallaya once had piles of money, now he only has piles & a big king-fissure.Dr Anuranjan Kakkarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04380871490514760182noreply@blogger.com
