Quoting sources ET reported that the Tatas had told bankers as much when they sought to interest the group in a rescue plan before the carrier was sent to the bankruptcy court.
The focus for the Tata Group will be assets it can use to scale up and tap the gap created by Jet’s exit. Tatas already run Vistara in Indian skies in collaboration with Singapore Airlines.
