Amid subdued traffic, IndiGo’s market share grows to 60%

Amid continuing subdued passenger traffic, market leader InterGlobe Aviation Ltd, which runs IndiGo witnessed a jump in its market share to 60.4% in July, data from aviation regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) shows.

In June, IndiGo reported a market share of 52.5%.

To be sure, while IndiGo has seen a surge in market share, the gains come at a time when overall passenger numbers continue to remain dismally low due to the covid-19 pandemic.

Overall, passenger traffic in July grew to 2.1 million, just slightly better than 1.98 million passengers that Indian aviation industry carried in June.
