Jet Airways India Ltd., the Mumbai-based carrier trading at the lowest since June 2015 on deteriorating finances and rising default risk on its debt obligations, said it is servicing all its loans on time in spite of surging fuel prices.
“We are regular in all our payment obligations to all our banks and statutory dues including provident fund obligations. Our account with all the banks as on date is standard,” the company said in an emailed statement on Saturday. The carrier had a total debt of 94.3 billion rupees ($1.4 billion) as of March 31, 2018, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
