The issue of performance payments is being reviewed after the (Indian) unions rejected a 50 per cent cut proposal.

Air India CMD Arvind Jadhav is meeting with the committees reviewing the productivity-linked incentives, examining the PLI issue of pilots, engineers, officers and other technical and non-technical staff.
