The airline has also filed an application for voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings before the NCLT.

The airline has also filed an application for voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings before the National Company Law Tribunal, according to a PTI report.
The airline has grounded 28 planes and more than half of its fleet due to non-supply of engines by Pratt & Whitney. The has resulted in a fund crunch, Khona said.
"It is an unfortunate decision (filing for voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings) but it had to be done to protect the interests of the company," Khona said.
