Govt Goes Ahead To Allow Direct Import Of Jet Fuel By Airlines

Government today moved forward to implement its decision to allow Indian carriers to directly import jet fuel, with the Civil Aviation Ministry writing to the Commerce Ministry to take the necessary steps.

The decision was taken earlier this month at a meeting of a Group of Ministers on aviation, headed by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, that the Commerce Ministry would permit direct import of Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) “by or on behalf of Indian carriers directly as the actual user and on actual use basis,” officials said here.
