Live news updates: India's Tata Group took control of state-run carrier Air India on Thursday, finalising a $2.4 billion deal to regain ownership of the airline after nearly 70 years.

The auto-to-steel conglomerate in October won the bid to take over Air India, seen as a victory for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government that for years struggled to privatise the financially troubled airline.

Chandrasekaran called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday ahead of the official handover of Air India to the Tata Group.

India recorded 286,384 new cases of Covid-19 and 573 deaths from the disease in the last 24 hours, said the health ministry on Thursday. Total Covid-19 cases increased to 40.37 million and death toll in the pandemic is at 491,700

Prime Minister Modi will host the first India-Central Asia Summit in a virtual format during which leaders are expected to discuss  relations and the regional security situation.
