Months after Tata Group announced Air India's merger with Vistara, Air India chief Campbell Wilson on Monday said the full-service carrier post the merger of Vistara will be known as Air India which is much more recognised outside the country. 

While the resultant full-service carrier will be known as Air India, Wilson emphasised that efforts will be made to retain some of the "Vistara heritage in that new manifestation".

On November 29 last year, Tata Group announced the merger of Vistara with Air India under a deal wherein Singapore Airlines will also acquire a 25.1 per cent stake in Air India.

The deal, which will make Air India the country's largest international carrier and second-largest domestic carrier, is expected to be completed by March 2024, subject to regulatory approvals.
