The awards were presented at a glittering ceremony in the presence of aviation industry doyens, dignitaries and crème de la crème who had gathered in the city for the India Aviation Conference and Exhibition 2016.

The BizAvIndia Operator of the Year award went to Global Vectra Helicorp Ltd in the large fleet category and Poonawalla Aviation Pvt Ltd in the small fleet category, which was based on quantum of flying, complexity of aircraft and operations, safety record, humanitarian effort and other parameters.

The BizAvIndia Award for Innovation was given to JetSetGo Aviation Services Pvt Ltd for their works towards expanding business aviation markets and improving efficiencies through use of internet.

The BizAvIndia Hall of Fame was bestowed upon Capt. SS Majithia, Chairman, Saraya Group; for his relentless contributions towards the growth of India’s Business and General Aviation sector.

A special recognition was conferred to Ravi S Menon, Executive Director Air Works India (Engineering) Pvt Ltd for meritorious service to the industry over 45 years. Speaking at the occasion, Jayant Nadkarni, President BAOA, said, “It is heartening to see such positive response to the second edition of BizAvIndia Awards.

They have brought the focus on operational excellence for an industry which is wrongly perceived as an indulgence.” The winners were adjudicated by a jury comprising of Kapil Kaul, CEO, CAPA India, Amber Dubey, Head-Aerospace & Defence, KPMG, Dhiraj Mathur, Executive Director, Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Anthony CoxDirector, Customer Support - Asia Pacific, Bombardier Business Aircraft, based on benchmarks and criteria conferred by BAOA.
