Go First wins battle against lessors; NCLT says can use planes to start operations

In a big relief for Go First, the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) on Wednesday refused to restrain the airline from operating aircraft owned by various lessors.  The tribunal observed that the planes were essential to ensure that Go First remained a going concern and pointed out that the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has not deregistered the aircraft. The tribunal also dismissed a plea by the lessors who had asked they be allowed to inspect their aircraft and engines.
