The Air India Flight 171 crash in Ahmedabad, which claimed 241 lives, may lead to one of the largest aviation insurance payouts in history—estimated at $475 million. Experts warn the disaster could drive up aviation insurance premiums and impact global reinsurers.

At least 270 died when the Air India flight crashed into the campus of a medical college in Ahmedabad shortly after takeoff on Thursday. Only one passenger among the 242 aboard survived. At least 29 others on the ground, including five medical students inside the hostel, were also killed.

Five days after an Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad claimed 270 lives, 135 victims have so far been identified through DNA matching and 101 bodies handed over to their families, officials said on Tuesday.

People haven't still recovered from the horrific incident where 241 passengers, including an entire family of five were wiped out in seconds, and News channels are already flashing reports of two India-bound flights forced to return to their ports of departure due to technical issues.
