Abhishek Law has spent 18 years in journalism, which in news industry terms means he has survived several newsroom restructurings, countless āurgentā press releases, and more cups of tea than he can reasonably count. Based in New Delhi, he covers aviation for Mint, a sector where aircraft, oil prices, geopolitics and airline CEOs regularly conspire to make his life interesting.<br><br>Most of his time gets occupied by translating airline jargon like ASKs, yields, load factors and fleet strategies into language that doesnāt require a pilotās licence.
His motto is simple: if readers need a glossary, he hasnāt done his job properly.<br><br>On most days, the quadragenarian is tracking airline strategies, policy changes and the occasional mid-air disruption that suddenly become a stock market story. When planes are
behaving themselves (which is not very often nowadays), he strays into other corporate beats like steel, trying to figure out whatās really happening.<br><br>He loves to talk, especially askāthat one more question which people are uncomfortable with, and saving contacts in
his phone as a "Source who may or may not pick up callsā. <br><br>But, on a serious note, the goal remains simple: cut through jargon, find that additional detail, and turn complicated business stories into something one can actually enjoy reading.
