flag A 13-year-old Boeing 737 was lost by Air India during privatization, incurring a $168,000 parking fee.

flag A 13-year-old Boeing 737-200, registered as VT-EHH, was found at Kolkata Airport in 2025 after Air India lost track of it, leading to a 10 million rupee ($168,000) parking fee. flag Originally part of Indian Airlines, the plane was merged into Air India in 2007 and later leased to the Indian postal service for cargo. flag The airline admitted it had failed to account for the aircraft during its 2022 privatization, citing incomplete records. flag Aviation experts say such a loss is highly unusual due to strict regulatory requirements for aircraft documentation and maintenance. flag Though the plane could have been sold for parts, its age and low value limited its economic potential. flag The incident underscores gaps in asset tracking during major corporate transitions.
