Abstract
This Paper discusses the state of mergers and analysis on the OECD Competition Committee Debate in the aviation industry in India, the reasons behind such mergers, their impact on the industry, and the outlook for the Indian aviation sector. The Indian aviation industry is highly competitive and fragmented, with several players, including low-cost carriers and full-service carriers. The impact of airline mergers has been mixed, leading to better financial performance and market share gains, but also resulting in job losses, operational challenges, and customer dissatisfaction. The future of the Indian aviation sector is expected to be chaotic, with the entry of new players which likely to ignite price wars. This research paper emphasizes the importance of balancing anti-trust policy to ensure that mergers do not lead to concentrated markets and highlights the need for regulatory policies that promote competition while improving issues related to labor costs, rapid fleet expansion, and intense price competition. The controversial aspects of airline mergers and alliances in India, including their impact on competition, consumer welfare, and workforce rights. It also discusses the issue of cartelization and the use of software for predatory pricing in the airline industry. It also includes that upon the discussions on airline mergers by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development which is known as OECD that have emphasized the need to safeguard against anti-competitive behaviour and abuse of market power while also considering the supply-side perspective in market definition where the airline alliances need to be examined on a case-by-case basis to determine their potential antitrust concerns. Key words: OECD, Competition, Airline Industry, Abuse of Dominance, Mergers, CCI
