Tata Group-owned Air India's FY26 loss more than doubled to ₹22,238 crore as revenue fell 8.6%. Tata Sons expects its fleet, technology and cultural turnaround, including Vistara integration, to take five to ten years amid supply-chain constraints.

Why this matters

The result reinforces Air India's recent warning that its turnaround will take 5–10 years as revenue and losses stay pressured, while Boeing 787 door-handle modifications following an FAA safety flag add operational demands.
