A discharge plea was filed before a special PMLA court by Goyal, who attributed Jet's collapse to market conditions. Financial difficulties were cited as a major factor, resulting from various economic pressures. Rising aviation fuel prices and foreign exchange volatility were among the challenges faced by the carrier.

Intense competition also played a role in the financial struggles of the airline, according to the plea. The Enforcement Directorate has alleged systemic fraud, however, Goyal's plea focuses on the economic difficulties.

Further details on the case are available from the source, providing more insight into the circumstances surrounding Jet's collapse and the allegations against it.
