DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c86596) has announced the
addition of "The 2007/2008 India Airline Industry Forecast" to their
offering.

   The anticipated growth of the airline industry (specifically
passenger air services) in India will be strong in 2007 and 2008
according to our estimates, even as new airlines emerge and even as
airports struggle to handle the high volumes.

   The author expects the passengers carried by India's airlines to
rise in 2007, growing further in 2008. This continued growth could be
attributed to the rising disposable income among Indian citizens and a
growing middle class in India who are newly able to afford travel by
air for leisure and business.

   At the same time, we believe the low-cost market to be the fastest
growing sector in the industry. This swell will be driven by
aggressive expansion of some currently operating low-cost carriers
(passenger airlines operating on low cost structure), the entrance of
several new low-cost carriers to the Indian market and low-cost
carriers' continued choice to compete directly with rail travel.
