business jets that also have the extravagance of superyachts. Famous names in this business — such as Gulfstream, Dassault and Bombardier — are engaged in a fierce battle to outdo each other, with more technology and luxury being crammed into their latest creations. The newer range of business jets are even more lavish, yet designed keeping sustainability in the mind. That’s because the owners of such aeroplanes are no longer focussed on just, say, gold fixtures or loud colours: “responsible luxury” has become the new buzzword for them. Gulfstream has been successful with the 650ER, but its new G700 is a significant step up as it comes with a set of new engines and an overhauled cabin design. The G700 is crucial for the planemaker because the demand for long-haul private jets has increased, in most part due to billionaires such as Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk owning this jet. After launching the 650 ER, Gulfstream returned to the drawing board to improve speed, range and roominess, and came up with the G700. The exterior design of the latest model remains elegant and restrained. But the interiors have seen a radical departure from the usual business jets.

material wealth and happiness. The saints speak of another race — the race to God that leads to lasting joy and spiritual riches. We have been given this human existence so that our soul can find its way back to the Almighty, and we are all in a race to get there.

Yet, it is not a race in which we compete with fellow travellers to be the only winner. Instead, it is a race that each of us will eventually win. For this race, we embark on the inner spiritual journey through meditation to experience the Supreme's love and light for ourselves.

Pieter Elbers, CEO, IndiGo, says the growth is pretty much what was expected and follows the usual seasonal trends.

On the cost side, IndiGo faced a peak in AOGs due to global supply chain problems and some engine issues we've encountered, which has resulted in extra costs. IndiGo has been consistently beating market estimates. But for the quarter gone by, the story seems to be different. There is a drop in margin. This is one of the slowest quarterly growth you have reported in 12 quarters. What has led to this decline? Was it traffic? Was it an issue with aircraft? Could you just share more light on that? Pieter Elbers: Let me take a step back and see how India has basically recovered in terms of traffic post COVID.
