According to the report, the industry witnessed steady pricing power in FY2025, with stable yields and domestic air passenger traffic growth tapered to 7.6 per cent.
"... emerging geopolitical and operational headwinds -- in the form of rising crude oil prices (because of the Israel-Iran conflict), closure of the airspace over Iran and Pakistan (for Indian carriers), probable rise in insurance premia (after the recent aeroplane crash) and possible hesitation to travel -- warrant close monitoring for potential downside risks.
"The operating costs for the Indian aviation industry are likely to have increased in the past couple of months (due to flight cancellations and other operational challenges following the India-Pakistan conflict). Nevertheless, the overall passenger traffic and the pricing so far have remained steady," it said.

Only Indian man ever who had his private railway station, train used to reach his palace, his name was..., was from...
Nawab Hamid Ali Khan Nawab of India who had his own private railway station: You must have heard many stories about the rich Nawabs of India who carried a rich cultural lineage. From the likes of Nawab of Hyderabad – Mir Osman Ali Khan to Nawab of Pataudi – Nawab Iftikhar Ali Khan & Nawab Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, the stories of Indian Nawabs have been covered in much detail. However, do you know the story of the Indian Nawab who had his personal private railway station and a train running till his palace. Here are all the details you need to know about Nawab Hamid Ali Khan, one of the richest Nawabs of India. Who is Nawab Hamid Ali Khan? As India struggled under the British Raj in the early 20th century, the princely state of Rampur was glowing quiet opulence and the Nawab of the state, Nawab Hamid Ali Khan enjoyed a rich empire including a private railway station which was used only by the royal family of Rampur. Did Nawab Hamid Ali Khan own a Private Railway station? The Nawab Hamid Ali Khan enjoyed such a rich lifestyle that while most Indians couldn't afford a second-class ticket, he had two royal salon coaches permanently stationed and ready to roll. Equipped with chandeliers, carved furniture, Persian carpets and even separate kitchens for Indian vegetarian and English non-vegetarian cuisines, the Railway coaches of Nawab Hamid Ali Khan weren't just compartments but moving Royal palaces. What happened to Railway coaches of Nawab Hamid Ali Khan? Talking about what happened to the Railway compartments, Nawab Raza Ali Khan gifted two royal coaches to the Government of India after partition in 1954. The coaches remained in use until 1966 which was surprisingly the Nawab's year of death. Following his death in 1966, the activity at the private station of Nawab Hamid Ali Khan declined significantly and around the same period, the abolition of the privy purse—a financial allowance to former princely states also led to the eventual closure of the private railway station.

54 containers carrying parts for Goregaon Mulund Link Road arrive from Japan
The ambitious Rs 6,500 crore Goregaon Mulund Link Road (GMLR) is set to witness a key threshold as at least 54 trailers comprising parts of the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM), which will bore the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road (GMLR) project's twin tunnels, have arrived from Japan into Mumbai. With the final consignment of the first TBM slated to arrive by next month the work on the tunnel with a diameter of 14.5 metre will begin. GMLR's twin TBM tunnels will be amongst the widest road tunnel projects undertaken by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). Pegged at a cost of nearly Rs. 6500 crore, the GMLR is an ambitious project which aims to alleviate congestion by linking Goregaon in the western suburbs to Mulund in the eastern suburbs. A crucial part of the GMLR project are the 6.65-km long twin tunnels which will start from Film City in the western suburbs and open near Mulund's Amar Junction, which currently houses a huge slum pocket. The GMLR tunnels will surpass the Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), covering a complex topography of hillocks, forest and farmlands. The twin tunnels will be built using two TBM machines, which will commence boring from the launching shaft in Film City. Abhijit Bangar, Additional Municipal Commissioner (Projects) confirmed with The Indian Express that trailers containing parts of the first TBM machine started arriving from Japan in late March, this year. 'A total of 77 containers carrying parts of the first TBM machine will be arriving in the city. We received the first consignment on March 25. As many as 54 containers have already arrived and the balance of 23 containers will be received in the coming month,' said Bangar. According to officials, the remaining parts of the TBM machine are expected to arrive by August 15. Arriving from Japan, the containers are being unloaded at the JNPT port from where the consignments are being ferried in trailers up to the worksite. The parts of the first TBM will be assembled over a period of four months, after all the containers are received. Gearing up for the process, the civic body is currently undertaking piling works at the Goregaon work site at the launch shaft where the TBM tunnels will be lowered. Meanwhile, the consignments on the second TBM machine is slated to arrive in the city from December 2025. Raking beneath the SNGP, the TBMs are slated to dig a 5.30-kilometre tunnel before finally achieving its breakthrough at Mulund's Amar Nagar Junction, where the other end of the tunnel is proposed to open. Of the total 6.65-km tunnel length, nearly 1.35 km will be made up the approach roads and the box-tunnel, while nearly 5.30 km will comprise the portion dug by the tunnel boring machine.
