IndiGo’s Strong Performance Despite Challenges

This upgrade comes at a time when IndiGo is doing quite well financially, even with tough global conditions affecting the airline industry.

Between April and June 2025, IndiGo carried over 3.1 crore passengers, a 12% increase compared to last year. It maintained a strong 84.6% load factor, even with a slight dip, and reported revenues of ₹20,496 crore
