Air India gains share as Express expands flying in a slowing market
23 Sept 2026 · LiveMint Companies
Air India is gaining domestic market share as capacity returns and Air India Express adds flights. But demand is weakening and planes are flying with fewer seats filled, presenting incoming chief Gebremariam with an early challenge.
The analysis
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
Market context
- This is a market-wide development — its reach goes beyond any single stock.
- The immediate tone of coverage reads positive.
