The aviation sector was inaugurated in India in the year 1932 with the establishment of Tata Airlines.

Tata Airlines was founded by JRD Tata, the son of the founder of the Tata Group. The airline operated its first flight on October 15, 1932, from Karachi to Bombay (now Mumbai). Tata Airlines was later nationalized and renamed Air India.

The establishment of Tata Airlines was a major milestone in the development of the aviation sector in India. It helped to connect different parts of the country and made it easier for people and goods to move around. The airline also played an important role in the growth of trade and industry in India.

Today, the Indian aviation sector is one of the fastest growing in the world. It has over 700 airports and is served by over 100 airlines. The sector carries over 200 million passengers and over 3 million tonnes of freight every year.
