INDIGO — India's Aviation Leader, Ready for Its Next Flight

More routes. Stronger pricing. A growing global network. IndiGo is aiming to turn India's rising travel demand into long-term growth. 🚀 InterGlobe Aviation, the parent of IndiGo, is India's largest airline by market share. Its low-cost operating model, extensive domestic network and expanding international presence give it a strong position in the aviation market. 📊 Q2 FY27: Revenue soars, costs remain elevated Revenue from operations: ₹23,364 crore, up 25.9% YoY Net loss: ₹1,879 crore, compared with ₹2,582 crore a year ago Passenger yield: ₹6.30, up 34.3% YoY Passengers carried: 2.75 crore, down 4.7% YoY Fleet: 442 aircraft as of September 2026 Revenue grew sharply, supported by stronger ticket pricing.
