Air India Ltd. has confirmed the resignation of CEO Campbell Wilson, who signalled his intent to exit as early as 2024. Wilson will remain in his role until a successor is appointed by a newly constituted board committee.
Under his leadership, Air India underwent consolidation, expanding its fleet by 100 aircraft and placing a historic order for nearly 600 more. The airline reported a 13% rise in standalone revenue to ₹61,080 crore in FY25, narrowing its loss to ₹3,976 crore.
However, the airline remains the largest loss-making entity within Tata Group. The departure of Wilson leaves the board with the task of finding a leader capable of managing the massive operational scaling required when the bulk of its 600-strong aircraft orderbook begins arriving next year.
