IndiGo Stock Dips 2% as Massive Operational Glitches Affect Flights Nationwide

IndiGo Shares Fall 2% as Flight Disruptions Leave Passengers Stranded.

Shares of InterGlobe Aviation, IndiGo’s parent company, slipped 2% intraday to a low of ₹5,405 on Thursday, following widespread flight delays and cancellations across the country. Operational issues, airport congestion, and technology glitches have left thousands of passengers stranded.

Major airports—including Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Ahmedabad—reported over 100 flight cancellations by Wednesday afternoon. The stock was trading at ₹5,545, down 0.88% at 9:40 AM, against the previous close of ₹5,595.

IndiGo has urged travellers to check flight statuses online before heading to airports, as many terminals remain crowded with passengers seeking rebookings. The airline is also facing a severe pilot shortage since the new flight duty time limitation (FDTL) norms were introduced last month, affecting crew scheduling.
