New Delhi:

SpiceJet has successfully resolved its dispute with Engine Lease Finance Corporation (ELFC) through an amicable settlement. ELFC, which had earlier claimed $16.7 million, has agreed to settle for an undisclosed amount, which is less than the initial claim.

This agreement is an important step in SpiceJet’s ongoing efforts to streamline its operations and focus on future growth.

SpiceJet raises Rs 3,000 crore through QIP

SpiceJet has successfully raised Rs 3000 crore through its recently concluded Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), which was oversubscribed by investors. The QIP attracted a diverse group of top-tier institutional investors and mutual funds, reaffirming the market’s confidence in SpiceJet’s ability to navigate the industry challenges and capitalise on the growing demand in the aviation sector.

Ajay Singh, Chairman and Managing Director, SpiceJet, said, “We are pleased to have reached a mutually beneficial agreement with ELFC, which enables us to move forward in a clean manner. This agreement not only resolves past issues but also strengthens our position at the start of the next phase of growth and expansion.”

QIP strengthens the airline’s financial position

SpiceJet’s successful QIP has significantly enhanced the airline’s financial position. The funds raised are earmarked for various strategic initiatives, including settlement of past liabilities, operational expansion and enhancing the airline’s fleet and services. With the implementation of the QIP and resolution of key disputes, SpiceJet is well positioned for strong growth in the future.
