Aviation Industry Outlook
The Indian economy has emerged as the fastest-growing major economy in the world. Backed by robust democracy and resilient partnerships, our economy is expected to be one of the top three economic powers in the world over the next 12 -15 years. Air transport generates benefits to consumers and the economy at large by providing speedy connections between cities.
These simulated bridges in the air enable the economic flows of goods, investments, people and ideas that are the fundamental drivers of economic growth. A supportive policy framework coupled with the state-of-the-art infrastructure facilities at the leading airports, healthy competition among the airlines and an intensifying share of middle-income households has provided confident momentum to the aviation sector.
The Asia Pacific region is starting to open up again, but travel restrictions still impact key markets and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine adds additional challenges. After being closed to tourists for nearly two years amid Covid-related border controls, the Indian Aviation sector has started to open for vaccinated travelers. The government finally recognizes that rising vaccination and the reduced mortality associated with the Omicron variant of COVID-19 means it is time to reboot air travel.
During the last decades, the Indian Civil Aviation industry has emerged as one of the fastest-growing industries in the country. India has become the third-largest domestic aviation market in the world by 2024. To cater to the expanding air traffic, the Government of India has been working towards increasing the number of airports. The Ministry of Civil Aviation is responsible for formulating national aviation policies and programs.
India has envisaged increasing the number of operational airports to 190 – 200 by the financial year 2039 – 40 as against 153 operational airports in the year 2020. As of November 2019, 680 airplanes were in service in the fleet of scheduled Indian operators. Due to the rise in demand for air travel, India will need 1,100 commercial aircraft by 2027 and 2,380 airplanes by 2038. 28th Annual Report 2021-22 21 More major developments are forthcoming in the Indian aviation industry as a new player moves faster to launch and two airlines prepare to sign large aircraft deals.
CIAL shares are not listed but are available in the unlisted share market. Cochin International Airport’s share price used to change on a regular basis.
The start-up LCC Akasa Air has cleared the final regulatory hurdle before beginning operations and plans to grow its fleet quickly. Air India appears to be close to placing long-overdue orders for fleet renewal, while Jet Airways is also evaluating aircraft deals to relaunch and grow its operations.

Let ‘s break down the Cash Flow Statement of Cochin International Airport Limited for the years 2023, 2022, and 2021, activity-wise:
A. Cash Flow from Operating Activities:
1. Profit before tax:
– In 2023, the company reported a substantial profit before tax of 39,168.88, marking a significant improvement compared to the previous years (2022: 4,856.37, 2021: -12,303.14).
2. Adjustments (Positive/Negative):
– The operating profit was adjusted for various factors such as provisions, depreciation, fair value gains, tax expenses, and interest income. These adjustments play a crucial role in reflecting the company ‘s true operational cash flow.
3. Operating Profit before working capital changes:
– The operating profit before considering working capital changes showed a robust performance in 2023, reaching 54,757.21, compared to 24,623.09 in 2022 and 7,291.83 in 2021.
4. Cash Generated from Operations:
– The cash generated from operations exhibited a remarkable improvement in 2023, totalling 68,573.36. This contrasts with 16,338.16 in 2022 and a negative figure of -2,309.37 in 2021, indicating a significant turnaround in operational cash flow.
B. Cash Flow from Investing Activities:

C. Cash Flow from Financing Activities:
1. Net Cash Flow:
– Financing activities showed a net outflow of cash in 2023, amounting to -9,459.74, primarily driven by interest payments, changes in term loans, and dividend distributions.
