India readies SAF policy with 1% international-flight blending target for 2027
The proposed Sustainable Aviation Fuel policy will set rules on traceability, airport storage, compliance and carbon credits. Blending targets for international flights rise to 2% in 2028 and 5% in 2030, with the government aiming to contain fare impacts for airlines and passengers.
India is finalising a Sustainable Aviation Fuel policy covering traceability, airport storage, compliance and carbon credits. The government targets 1% SAF blending for international flights by 2027, while seeking to limit cost impacts on airlines and passengers.
Why this matters
The SAF proposal follows India’s E20 petrol rollout, which may require rubber-part replacements in older vehicles, extending government action on lower-carbon transport fuels and compliance requirements.
