IndiGo may face CCI probe after mass flight cancelations

Business Dec 10, 2025

IndiGo is under the spotlight after canceling over 5,000 flights in December 2025, leaving a lot of travelers stuck.
Now, India's Competition Commission (CCI) is considering launching an inquiry to see if IndiGo used its dominant position unfairly—officials say there's a "strong case" for a closer look.

What's happening behind the scenes?

While the DGCA investigates why so many flights were canceled (hint: IndiGo is short by 65 pilots under new rules), they've already asked top IndiGo execs for answers.
The airline has asked for more time to respond.
Interestingly, this isn't IndiGo's first run-in with regulators—past antitrust cases were dismissed, but all eyes are back on how the airline handles its business.
