Pratt & Whitney on Thursday opposed Go Airlines (India) Ltd's push to enforce an arbitration ruling in an engine dispute, with the U.S. company arguing in a Delaware court that the Indian airline's bankruptcy filing has raised risks for it.

"The risks for IAE, which were high to begin with, have increased significantly since Go First’s bankruptcy."While the Indian airline has blamed Pratt for its financial troubles and subsequent bankruptcy filing, the engine maker argued that claim is unfounded and the airline's years-long failure to pay for the maintenance and lease charges led to the necessary suspension of services.
Go First was not a "victim in need of urgent legal redress" but in reality an "insolvent airline that materially breached its contractual obligations," it said in the filing.
