There were forty larger A350 planes left. 34 A350-1000 and six A350-900 were among them.

Air India modifies its Airbus purchase

According to sources, Air India changed the order it had with Airbus. It will now purchase 70 A320 Neo and 140 A321 Neo. In addition, the sequence of the 40 A350 has changed. An Air India representative responded to a question over this by saying, "We regularly review our orderbook based on business needs and opportunities." Airbus said, "It depends on our customers" in response to this. They need to disclose their plan.

In 2022, the Tata Group bought

In January 2022, the Tata Group purchased Air India, a losing venture. Notably, Air India placed orders with Airbus and Boeing for 470 aircraft this year. The value of this order was $70-billion. Prior to this, Air India had said that it would buy around 470 aircraft in June. In the airline business, large savings are offered on the purchase of many planes. Previously, IndiGo placed an order with Airbus for around 830 aircraft of the A320 series.
