The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) on Friday issued show cause notices to four senior executives of IndiGo over lapses in safety management practices. IndiGo is the first airline after SpiceJet to get pulled up by the DGCA over safety issues.
The notices were sent to heads of training, flight safety, operations, and quality assurance following a surprise audit by the DGCA.
Among other lapses, the audit found no safety action group within the training department to discuss and resolve critical safety issues.
Further, guidelines have not been established for deciding type and quantum of corrective action, it said.
