Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Bank of India's aircraft-finance profile is supported by the 2025 USD 215 million AIFS/Air India Boeing 777-300ER facility, plus its IFSC corporate lending, syndicated loan, trade finance, and foreign-currency term-loan capabilities. Public evidence points to large corporate and airline-related transactions, not a general private-aircraft lending product.
