●VSR●Top 5●Fly
Analysis
India's four major business jet airports Q1 2026 combined 5,966 movements; annualized ~23,864 — ~12.3% growth vs. full-year 2025's 21,251 (note: annualized estimate may be high or low depending on Q1's seasonal representativeness). Hyderabad has the highest annualized growth at 26.1%; Bangalore 15.9%; Mumbai 12.7%; Delhi 8.4%. VSR Ventures holds #1 at Delhi (1,171 movements), Mumbai (824), and Hyderabad (379) — four airports combined ~2,469 movements, market share leading. Among international operators, VistaJet entered Top 5 at Mumbai (137 movements) and Bangalore (132). Fly Alliance reportedly announced plans to enter the India market (specific operational scale and fleet config details pending verification — Fly Alliance is a US operator; specifics of its India expansion are not yet clear), facing DGCA's complex approval process and local giant VSR's competitive moat. Confidence ★★★ (KG + AviGo dual cross-verification; Fly Alliance India plan details pending).
