The Indian government on Thursday got out an official Gazette, which allows leasing companies to take back aircraft, airframes, helicopters, and engines that belong to an Indian airline that is undergoing insolvency proceedings.
The Gazette strikes down the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) ruling placing a moratorium on lessors reposing planes of bankrupt airline GoFirst
.
The issue of the Gazette will help sync Indian laws with the Cape Town Convention (CTC). Incidentally, India signed the CTC in March 2008. In 2018 the government sought comments on the CTC so that the lessors could repossess their aircraft and engines if an airline was unable to meet its lease payments. But nothing came of the move forcing the government to issue a Gazette notification on Thursday.
