The Poonawalla family, led by patriarch Cyrus Poonawalla ($27B net worth, Forbes) and his son Adar Poonawalla, CEO of Serum Institute of India, presides over the world's largest vaccine manufacturer by doses. Based in Pune, the family owns Poonawalla Aviation Pvt. Ltd., established in 2005, providing bespoke chartered flight services. Their fleet includes a Bombardier Global 6000 (VT-CDP), a Gulfstream G550, and an Airbus H145 helicopter for travel between Pune and Mumbai. In 2019, Adar took delivery of India's first fully customised ACH145 helicopter from Airbus. The family's primary base is Pune Airport (VAPO), located near their 247-acre estate and Serum Institute headquarters. Their Global 6000 has a range of 11,112 km enabling nonstop flights to London, Paris, Tokyo and Singapore.
