Aircraft Leasing

Own, lease and manage aircraft and engines from India

In brief

What aircraft leasing means here

An aircraft lessor set up in the tax-free zone can acquire aircraft, engines and helicopters and lease them on operating or finance lease to airlines anywhere in the world. Transactions are in foreign currency, and the unit can also provide asset-management and remarketing services on aircraft it does not own. This is the route most global lessors use to move an India-facing book onshore without losing offshore treatment.

Applicable regulation

Registered as a Finance Company or Finance Unit under the IFSCA (Finance Company) Regulations, 2021, read with the IFSCA framework for aircraft operating lease.
