Mumbai/New Delhi, November 10: A crucial meeting of the Air India Board tomorrow is likely to take decisions on several cost-cutting measures such as a proposal to scrap the productivity-linked incentives (PLI) to its management cadre, and adopt the financial accounts for 2008-09.
“The main agenda is adoption of accounts for the previous financial year,” sources close to the development said. The meeting, to be held in Chennai, is also likely to discuss route and capacity rationalisation as part of the cost-cutting proposals.
The meeting comes days ahead of a meeting of the Group of Ministers (GoM) on the national carrier’s financial health and in the backdrop of a strike threat by the non-executive pilots owing allegiance to the Indian Commercial Pilots Association (ICPA).
