It took delivery of its first aircraft in July 2006 and commenced operations a month later, on 4 August 2006.[14] The airline became the largest Indian carrier by passenger market share in December 2012.[15] The company went public in October 2015.[16] IndiGo was ranked the 15th most punctual airline globally in 2022 by OAG.[17] It is also the 6th busiest airline in the world, as per data from RadarBox.[12]

## History

[edit]

IndiGo was founded in 2005 as a private company by Rahul Bhatia of InterGlobe Enterprises and Rakesh Gangwal, a United States–based expatriate Indian.[18] InterGlobe had a 51.12% stake in IndiGo, while 47.88% was held by Gangwal's Virginia-based company, Caelum Investments.[19][20] IndiGo placed a firm order for 100 Airbus A320-200 aircraft in June 2005 with plans to begin operations in mid-2006.[21] The airline took delivery of its first aircraft on 28 July 2006, nearly a year after placing the initial order.[22] It commenced operations on 4 August 2006 with a service from New Delhi to Imphal via Guwahati.[23] By the end of 2006, the airline had six aircraft, and nine more were acquired in 2007.[23]

In April 2007, IndiGo had crossed the 1 million-passenger mark.[24]

In April 2009, IndiGo crossed the 10 million-passenger mark and received delivery of its 25th aircraft.[24]

In December 2010, IndiGo replaced the then state-run carrier Air India, as the third largest airline in India, behind Kingfisher Airlines and Jet Airways with a passenger market share of 17.3%.[25]

In 2011, IndiGo placed an order for 180 Airbus A320 aircraft in a deal worth US$15 billion.[26] In January 2011, after completing five years of operations, the airline was permitted to launch international flights.[27] Also, in terms of market share, the company became the largest domestic carrier in India in this month.[24] In December 2011, the DGCA expressed reservations that the rapid expansion could impact passenger safety.[28]

In February 2012, IndiGo took delivery of its 50th aircraft, less than six years after it began operations.[29] For the quarter ending March 2012, IndiGo was the most profitable airline in India and became the second largest airline in India in terms of passenger market share.[30] On 17 August 2012, IndiGo became the largest airline in India in terms of market share surpassing Jet Airways, six years after commencing operations.[31] In December 2012, IndiGo crossed the 50 million-passenger mark.[24]

In January 2013, IndiGo was the second fastest-growing low-cost carrier in Asia behind Indonesian airline Lion Air.[32] In February 2013, following the announcement of the Civil Aviation Ministry that it would allow IndiGo to take delivery of only five aircraft that year, the airline planned to introduce low-cost regional flights by setting up a subsidiary. Later, IndiGo announced that it planned to seek permission from the ministry to acquire four more aircraft, therefore taking delivery of nine aircraft in 2013.[33] It took delivery of its 75th aircraft this month.[24] By March 2014, IndiGo was the second-largest low-cost carrier in Asia in terms of seats flown.[34]

In November 2014, IndiGo received its 100th aircraft. This completed IndiGo's initial 100-aircraft order, placed in 2005.[35]

In March 2015, the carrier crossed the 100 million-passenger mark. In August 2015, IndiGo placed an order for 250 Airbus A320neo aircraft worth $27 billion, making it the largest single order in Airbus history.[36] It announced a ₹3,018 crore (equivalent to ₹36 billion or US$420 million in 2023) initial public offering on 19 October 2015 which opened on 27 October 2015.[37][38][39]

In October 2017, IndiGo announced its plan to strengthen its regional operations with flight connections including routes to and from Tirupati, Rajahmundry, Hyderabad, Chennai, Bengaluru, Mangalore, Madurai and Nagpur. 90 new flight connections were announced.[24] On November 2017, IndiGo took delivery of its first ATR 72-600.[40] In December 2017, the commencement of IndiGo's ATR operations in Hyderabad was announced.[24]

In October 2019, IndiGo placed an order for 300 Airbus A320neo aircraft worth ₹2.3 lakh crore (US$27 billion), surpassing its own record of the largest single order in Airbus history.[41][42] In December 2019, the airline became the first Indian airline to operate 1,500 daily flights.[43] On 31 December 2019, it became India's first airline to have a fleet of more than 250 aircraft.[44]

In 2020, 10 new domestic and 8 new international destinations were added.[24] IndiGo's fleet increased to 262 aircraft. 45 net aircraft were added during the year.[24] Over 75 million passengers were carried during the year 2020.[24]

In January 2023, the airline became the first Indian airline to have a fleet of more than 300 aircraft.[45] In February 2023, the airline inducted its first wide-body aircraft, a wet-leased Boeing 777-300ER, to its fleet.[46] In June 2023, the airline placed an order for 500 Airbus A320neo family aircraft, the largest aircraft order in commercial aviation history.[47] As of November 2023, IndiGo had a 61.8% domestic market share.[48] In December 2023, IndiGo became the first Indian airline to have carried over 100 million passengers in a calendar year.[49]

In April 2024, it formally entered the wide-body space by placing an order of 30 A350-900s, with 70 options for $5 billion.[50] The delivery of these aircraft will commence in 2027.[51] On 14 November 2024, the airline's first A321neo with IndiGo's new business class product, IndiGoStretch,[52] entered service.[53]

IndiGo is headquartered in Gurgaon, India.[54] The company is publicly listed under the moniker NSE: INDIGO.[55]

### Logo and livery

[edit]

Twenty dots arranged in the shape of an aircraft serve as the airline's logo.[56] The airline's primary livery is an indigo and sky blue colour scheme which uses an indigo paint job that starts from the underbody fuselage and continues till the end of the tail section, along with sky blue accents around the fuselage and on the tail.[57] The winglets and engines of the aircraft are indigo in colour with the airline's website link, "goIndiGo.in", written on the engines in white in the same font as the IndiGo badging.[57][58] The IndiGo badging is written in the same indigo colour on both sides of the fuselage and the tail.[57][58] The airline uses a secondary two-tone blue livery on a white background with the belly of the aircraft painted in indigo with the logo in white.[59]

## Financials and operations

[edit]

IndiGo became one of the fastest growing low-cost carriers in the world and the largest airline in India.[32] Its success has been attributed to its unique business model which reduces costs.[30] The airline operates a single type of aircraft, the Airbus A320 family, in similar seating configuration which simplifies crew training and maintenance.[30] The airline strikes bulk deals with Airbus, reducing unit costs.[30] The airline targets a quick, 20-minute turn-around time to prepare the aircraft for the next flight, ensuring planes fly about 12 hours per day.[61] Employees share multiple roles with a check-in staff doubling as baggage handlers.[61] In July 2023, Indian aviation watchdog Directorate General of Civil Aviation imposed a ₹30 lakh (US$35,000) fine on IndiGo for certain systemic deficiencies concerning documentation pertaining to operations, training, and engineering procedures.[62] Also, in March 2025, the Income Tax department imposed a penalty of ₹944.20 crore (US$110 million) on InterGlobe Aviation, IndiGo's parent company, for the assessment year 2021-22.[63]
