IndiGo Airlines

IndiGo is India's largest airline by market share and passenger volume, operating as a low-cost carrier since its inaugural flight in August 2006. Founded by Rakesh Gangwal and Rahul Bhatia, the airline quickly grew to dominate domestic Indian aviation through a strategy focused on punctuality, low fares, and operational efficiency. The airline operates an extensive network of domestic routes across India and international routes spanning Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. IndiGo's parent company, InterGlobe Aviation, is publicly listed on Indian stock exchanges. IndiGo has built its reputation on a single-aircraft-type fleet strategy, primarily operating Airbus A320-family aircraft, which simplifies maintenance, training, and operations. It consistently ranks among the top low-cost carriers in Asia by fleet size and passenger numbers.
