operations but after eight years, in 2004, the company raised new funds and
resurrected its operations as SpiceJet. In the same year, the company also signed a
contract with Boeing to purchase Boeing 737-800 aircrafts. In year 2010, the
company got Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) node to operate on a few
selected international routes like Dubai and Singapore.

SpiceJet has been one of the intensive low-cost carriers in the airline industry. It has
been positioned to make profits even in a fluctuating industry scenario. It has been
revising its fleet size in order to manage costs in efficient manner. It has been using
Boeing 737-800 and Boeing 737-900ER for domestic routes and international

According to Market Line report, currently SpiceJet has a fleet size of 58 aircrafts that
operates across 51 destinations. It has been showing a phased size expansion of
capacity from FY 05 to FY 15 [Exhibit 1].
As per SpiceJet’s annual report, its operating revenue has grown at 12.56 per cent
[Exhibit 2] from the financial year (FY) 13-14 to FY 14-15, which is predominantly
driven by 6.2 per cent [Exhibit 4] surge in overall passenger traffic. The increase in
passenger traffic includes domestic passenger traffic and international passenger
traffic that has been growing by 3 percent and 98 percent respectively.
The available seat kilometer (million) and flights operated has been increasing from
FY 2011 to FY 14. According to SpiceJet’s annual report, These two components
have been growing at an average rate of 22.15 percent and 32.16 percent [Exhibit 3]
respectively because of the introduction of latest Boeing 737 aircraft.
According to company, ICICIdirect.com Research, SpiceJet’s passenger traffic has
grown with a CAGR of 23.3 [Exhibit 4] percent during FY 09-14 as compared to
overall industry passenger traffic CAGR of 9.17 [Exhibit 4] percent during the same

According to Crisil research report, the domestic market share of SpiceJet has been
varying between 17 to 19 percent [Exhibit 2] from the FY 2010-11 to Q1 FY 2014-
2015. The market share of its international operations has increased from 1.9 percent
in FY 2012-13 to 4.5 percent in FY 2013-14 [Exhibit 2] because of the addition of
few international destinations like Hong Kong and Dhaka. However, the market share

delivery, maintenance, and lease rental-aircraft have seen maximum surge in the cost.
Also, the net profit of SpiceJet has declined to a negative 424.9 percent in FY 14 from
FY 13 according to company’s annual report. However, the operating margin had
impacted by the week passenger load factor (PLFs), around 8 percent surge in
aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices, and weakening of currency by 12 percent in FY
2013-2014 from FY 2012-2013. All these factors have been accountable for higher
expenses of fuel and other structural costs.
SpiceJet has been implementing best internal and external exercises for improving
productivity in work performance. Also, the company has a strong relationship
between employees and internal control in processes but the company is
unsatisfactory in terms of net profit and in the course of strengthening its spot in the
market.
