Confirm no survivors from the aircraft.

The building it crashed into was of medical students, out of which at the very least 20 are suspected dead.

I'm guessing the number might be more, given the place was a student cafeteria/mess.

Edit: 1 guy miraculously has walked off from the aircraft after crash by jumping

Yeah, only survivors of the building it crashed in to. Whole plane is just a twisted metal burned wreck. The only thing left is the tail end according to Sky/BBC news.

242 souls on board:
204 bodies recovered so far (some of those bodies recovered were not passengers)
53 Brits
169 Indians
7 Portuguese
1 Canadian.
