This paper deals with the analysis of the prospects of business aviation in developing Asian countries, namely in India and the People's Republic of China. In the paper, a systematic overview of the current state of civil aviation and business aviation in both analyzed countries is presented, focusing on historical context, economic development, regulatory environment, airport infrastructure and commercial aviation segment. Particular attention is paid to the identification of stimulating and restrictive factors acting on the demand-side and supply-side that influence the development of business aviation. While India is mainly facing infrastructure, customs and tax barriers, in China, a major limitation is an airspace control and low flexibility of flight operations. At the same time, the paper formulates recommendations for policy and sectoral actors in order to create prerequisites for more efficient growth of business aviation, thereby contributing to the development of the business environment, regional connectivity and economic competitiveness of both countries.
