Virgin Australia collapsed on April 21, putting 16,000 jobs under threat.
The cash-strapped carrier announced it had entered voluntary administration to recapitalise the business after being battered by the pandemic, which has crippled the global airline industry.
The move came after the full-service carrier, which suspended almost all flights in March following wide-spread travel bans, failed to secure A$1.4 billion ($887.60 million) loan from the Australian government.
As regards Virgin Australia, InterGlobe Enterprises has signed an agreement to participate in the sale process and is bound by the confidentiality requirements of that agreement. We are unable to say anything further at this stage, InterGlobe Enterprises said.
