Budget carrier IndiGo has assured its employees that it will not make any deduction in their salaries or leaves due to the suspension of domestic flights till March 31.
The government’s decision to suspend domestic flight would come into effect from midnight Tuesday, as part of larger efforts to curb spreading of coronavirus infections.
In an e-mail to his employees, IndiGo Chief executive Officer Ronojoy Dutta said the company has “reasonable” level of advanced bookings for April and it was “anxious’ to fly again albeit with a reduced capacity.
“For those who don’t have to be working during this temporary suspension of operations, we will make no deduction of salaries or leaves,” Dutta said in the e-mail.
