India gov't clears plane order for low-cost carriers

NEW DELHI- The acquisitions worth a total of 190 billion rupees (US$4.1 billion) were cleared by a civil aviation ministry panel this week and the new planes will start arriving in November, the Business Standard reported Saturday.

Under the approvals, U.S. manufacturer Boeing will supply 32 planes and its European rival Airbus 14.

The hefty plane order by the low-cost airlines reflects their growing importance in the Indian market. Combined, the low-cost carriers fly half of all passengers in India.
