Akasa Air, one of India's youngest carriers, has had a fairly good run so far. The two-year old airline was the fastest in India to start international operations and the fastest to scale up its fleet. It now operates more than 900 weekly flights to India and international locations, has a 4.7% domestic market share and 226 planes on order.

But piling losses, ruthless competition from the IndiGo-Air India duopoly and a slowdown in deliveries from troubled plane maker Boeing loomed large and threatened to impact its run. 

What are Akasa’s plans ahead? Host Anirban Chowdhury speaks to CEO Vinay Dube and CCO Praveen Iyer.
