A webinar presented by the IBA India Working Group of the IBA Asia Pacific Regional Forum and supported by the IBA Aviation Law Committee

This webinar will examine how recent and ongoing legal and regulatory reforms in India are influencing the commercial, regulatory and operational landscape of the aviation sector.

India’s aviation sector is evolving alongside broader statutory modernisation, creating meaningful implications for airlines, financiers, lessors, OEMs, airports and industry advisors. The webinar is designed as a practical, cross-sector dialogue bringing together Indian legal practitioners, international counsel and industry stakeholders to translate regulatory developments into real-world operational and commercial considerations.

Core discussion themes include:

  • Segment one: labour law reforms and aviation workforce implications
  • Segment two: the Cape Town Convention − implementation in terms of aircraft leasing and financing in India
  • Segment three: passenger rights and regulatory compliance
  • Segment four: M&A in aviation − FDI structuring and competition approvals

Following these four focused segments led by both Indian and international speakers, this session will close with an interactive audience Q&A.
