Former employees of the defunct carrier “The counsel for Kingfisher Airline has told us that since the airline has not been operating, no revenue has been generated and hence they cannot pay us. It is good news for us that Vistara is coming up because most of us have joined the new airline,” said a former employee of the beleaguered carrier.
Apart from Tata-Singapore Airlines's Vistara, many have also joined
It’s worth noting that Kingfisher airline has not paid its employees since 2012 and made promises of disbursal of salaries on several occasions. A section of the distressed employees have also submitted a plea in the Karnataka High Court for releasing the funds deposited with the court as a security. The employees had requested the Court to allow the management to access Rs 220 crore from the security (Rs 250 crore) deposited with the court, which came from UBHL stake sale to Diageo.
Earlier this year, the employees also wrote to the labour Commission for the disbursal of the salary. Vijay Mallya was summoned by the chief labour commissioner to discuss the issue of unpaid salaries of the employees.
