Front row at every defining moment of India’s aviation story.

CAPA India was established in 2003, just as the second wave of industry liberalisation commenced, ushering in the modern Indian aviation industry as it exists today. We have had a front row presence at every defining moment since then.

Over the last 23 years, we have played a key role in airline start-ups and restructurings, airport privatisations, regulatory and policy reform, hub development, and critical investments across the aviation value, providing us with unmatched institutional experience in the Indian market.

We work with independence and integrity, and an obsession for outcomes. Our approach is always first-principles: rigorous, data-backed, and practically grounded. And we have an enviable track record for accurately predicting the direction of the industry.

All of which makes CAPA India the trusted partner that industry leaders turn to for sound advice.
