In December 2004, we got the NSOP permit in the name of India Flysafe Aviation Ltd (Formerly known as Shri Venkatesh Aviation). The First CEO of the Company was Capt M M Verma. The first Aircraft endorsed on the NSOP permit was Super King Air B200 (VT-SDJ). The said aircraft was taken on operating lease.

Today, the company stands tall with the distinction of operating & managing 12 aircrafts and helicopters and is one of the largest Non- Schedule operators in the country.
Safety is our prime concern and we take utmost care in ensuring that all government regulations are adhered too and we set a mark in global flight safety standards.
Besides operating aircrafts, the company also has an expertise in airport/ helipad establishment and management. After establishing Raigarh and Angul airports, we took on the responsibility of developing Barbil airport and Dumka airstrip. Few helipads are also being managed by the company viz Kurukshetra, Kaithal, Barbil, Tamnar and Sonipat.
The company is on the brink of expanding its aviation infrastructure further, when it plans new projects in Central Africa and Easter part of India. Raigarh and Angul are planned to be developed as major specialized maintenance facilities.
In true spirit, IFSAL is a name to be reckoned with.
