Management Discussion and Analysis (for the quarter)
Operating results for the quarter was impacted due to high fuel prices, rupee depreciation and increase in cost of operations. Temporary slowdown in demand has resulted into capacity reduction. This has resulted in aircraft on ground. Few of them were redeployed to profitable international routes.
The impact of aircraft on ground for the quarter was INR 903 million (US $16.6 million). There were instances of aircraft on ground during the year; the impact of this for the year was INR 1,889 million (US $ 34.8 million).
The result also includes onetime exceptional items amounting to INR 3,102 million (US $ 127.7 million).This is mainly due to maintenance events, Payroll arrears, SFIS reversal on account of expiry of licence and loss on exchange fluctuation.
Additionally we also had certain credits on account of compensation credit and Profit on sale and lease back of London slots.
Mr. Hameed Ali, acting Chief Executive Officer, Jet Airways (I) Ltd said, “Sluggish economic scenario and high yields have resulted in decrease in market demand and capacity. Rupee depreciation, high fuel prices, increase in Landing & navigation costs and Increase in Cost of operations including impact of onetime cost and aircraft on ground has impacted the quarterly results.
As India's premier airline, we continue to strive in our endeavor to enhance our guest experience through various strategic marketing and customer friendly initiatives. This will help us to achieve customer delight, which in turn will further help Jet Airways build its industry benchmarks of service excellence and quality, with convenience and comfort.”

Revenues from Domestic operations of INR 16,028 million (US $ 295.3 million) accounted for 40.2% of total revenues. Seat factors remained at around 74.8% for Q4 FY13 versus 77.1% for Q4 FY12. Capacity in terms of ASKM of 3,188 million in Q4FY13 versus 3,493 million in Q4 FY12
Highlights on International operations Q4 FY13
Revenues from International operations of INR 23,877 million (US $ 439.8 million) accounted for 59.8% of total revenues. Achieved seat factor of 84.4% in Q4 FY13 versus 86.0% in Q4 FY12.The EBITDAR margins are at 16.5% in Q4FY13 versus 12.6% in Q4 FY12.
Outlook
Rupee depreciation and increase in cost of operations, especially landing & navigation cost continues to be a cause of concern. Significant increases in Landing & navigation charges at key metros will lead to airlines passing on the costs to the passenger, which may affect the passenger growth in short term.
The demand growth is expected to climb up to a 10-12% range. As against this, capacity increases are expected to be moderate in the industry. Airlines are regaining pricing power and industry load factors are starting to go up.
We continue in our endeavor in cutting costs and improving productivity. Initiatives such as enhancing ancillary revenues, discontinuing loss making routes, sale/sale and lease back of aircraft will help us in the in medium to long term.
Our International business continues to show healthy trends which are reflecting in the seat factors. We are selectively adding flights to profit making markets such as Gulf & Middle East and ASEAN routes and discontinuing loss making routes.
The proposed Jet-Etihad deal will bring immediate revenue growth and cost synergy opportunities for both the airlines and will help strengthen Jet Airways balance sheet.
Key cost benefits and synergies in fleet acquisition, maintenance, joint purchasing opportunities for fuel, spare parts, equipment and catering supplies, as well as external services such as insurance and technology support will come through. Other areas of co-operation will include joint training of pilots, cabin crew and engineers, as well as maintenance of common aircraft types and consolidation of guest loyalty programs.
The alliance will bring significant guest benefits with expanded code sharing, creating a combined network of 140 destinations.
All of the above will result in accelerated return to sustainable profitability.
