THE AMRIT KAAL AGENDA

When Interglobe enterprises launched MOVIN Express—a B2B logistics JV with UPS—last May, J.B. Singh, Director of the company, did not expect it to be such a success. Singh, a veteran of the aviation and hospitality industries, attributes it to a mind shift happening across the world’s fifth-largest economy, where clients prefer to deal with structured, high-performance logistics players. “They want a process driven environment, things to move on schedule, and high-performance teams to bring down costs and make things more efficient,” says Singh, during an interaction with BT in his sun-kissed office in Gurugram. MOVIN has expanded to 49 cities in Q3FY23 from 28 in Q2, nearly doubled its headcount to 800 personnel from 460, and currently reaches more than 3,000 pin codes in India.

In eastern India, regional carrier IndiaOne Air launched operations last August with two nine-seater Cessna Grand Caravan EX aircraft to underserved destinations such as the left-wing extremism-impacted Jeypore district in Odisha. The airline today covers eight destinations, and has consistently reported passenger load factors (occupied seats in aircraft) of over 90 per cent since inception, data from Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) shows. “If urbanisation in India has to rise to 50 per cent, and its GDP has to jump to $15-20 trillion over the next two decades, aviation has to become accessible to the people living in Tier II and III cities,” says Arun K. Singh, CEO of IndiaOne Air.
