M.G Mohan Kumar
M.G Mohan Kumar, Finance Director Air Deccan had been associated with the charter division as a consultant since its inception.

He joins us at an exciting period of growth as we look forward to expand our operations and consolidate our leading position in the country. With his international experience I am confident Ramki will make a major contribution to our future growth in the global perspective."
He also said," During the last three and a half years Mohan Kumar has worked tirelessly and with his innovative ideas placed Air Deccan on a sound and robust footing. Ramki will be building on the solid foundation left by Mohan, whom we would like to thank for his significant contribution over the last three years."
