Niche world of Aircraft Leasing

India’s aviation sector is booming — with over 1,000 aircraft on order from Indigo, Air India, and others, the next decade will see massive growth. But what most people don’t know is: Aircraft Leasing and Financing is at the heart of this expansion.

Leasing is how most airlines acquire planes — and this niche sits at the intersection of finance, aviation, contracts, and global business.

It’s still an emerging field in India, which means massive potential for those who enter early.

In this session, I’ll share:

1. What aircraft leasing actually is
2. What roles exist — and what skills they require
3. My experience working in the leasing team at Air India
4. How you can position yourself to enter this niche

Whether you're a finance enthusiast, MBA student, or just curious about aviation careers beyond flying — this is a rare inside look into one of India’s fastest-growing industries.

No prior aviation experience needed. Just curiosity.
