Domestic air passenger traffic likely experienced an annual growth of 13 percent, reaching approximately 150.4 million in 2023-24, with the aviation industry's net loss expected to have decreased to Rs 30 to 40 billion during the same period.

Moreover, it experienced a growth of about 4.9 percent on a YoY basis.
