Supreme Court to hear plea for airfare regulation guidelines on September 7

The Supreme Court will hear a plea on September 7 seeking guidelines to regulate and control fluctuations in airfares. The petitioner contends that currently no regulatory authority possesses the power to review or cap airfares or ancillary charges imposed by airlines.

The plea raises concerns about the absence of a framework to monitor pricing practices in the aviation sector. The court's hearing will examine whether guidelines are needed to ensure more transparent and regulated airfare pricing.
