IndiGo is bracing for more competition with Akasa Air expected to be operational in the coming months while Jet Airways is likely to resume operations soon, information. 

In February 2022, IndiGo’s co-founders Rahul Bhatia and Rakesh Gangwal made headlines as the statement arrived that Bhatia will take charge as the airline’s Managing Director.

Further, on February 18, it was announced that Gangwal had stepped down from its board. Bhatia took over as the Managing Director on February 4 and since then, there have been quite a rare churns in the top deck. IndiGo — a low-cost carrier that accounts for more than half of the country’s domestic traffic — has declared the appointment of a new Chairman, Chief Financial Officer (CFO), and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in March.

Jet Airways is likely to restart operations soon

In March, IndiGo’s market share stood at 54.8 percent, as per official data. IndiGo, which has nearly 300 planes in its fleet, is also bracing for more competition with Akasa expected to be operational in the coming months while Jet Airways is likely to continue operations soon. The spiraling jet fuel costs are another major worry for the recovering aviation space.

The latest churn in IndiGo’s top deck is the appointment of Pieter Elbers as the CEO. He will join the airline on or before October 1 this year while incumbent Ronojoy Dutta will retire on September 30.

On May 4, the budget airline announced the stepping down of Chairman M Damodaran on attaining the age of 75 years. Now, InterGlobe Aviation, the parent of IndiGo, is chaired by Ventakataramani Sumantran.

Gaurav Negi was appointed as the CFO with development on March 29 following the resignation of Jiten Chopra. The announcement of the change of guard on May 18 at the airline also arrives against the backdrop of the denial of boarding of a specially-abled child by IndiGo staff at Raipur airport on May 7, an incident for which aviation regulator DGCA has given a show-cause notice to the carrier.

When Bhatia took over as the Managing Director, he told his agenda would be transformational and he would focus on expanding the airline’s presence in India and international markets and building for the long term.

In December 2021, IndiGo shareholders supported a special resolution to remove a clause in the company’s Articles of Association (AoA). The clause had provided Bhatia and Gangwal the power of right of first refusal when one of them wanted to sell his shares. The passage of the special resolution was likely to have paved the way for the resolution of the differences.

London Court of International Arbitration gave

Before that, differences between Bhatia and co-promoter Rakesh Gangwal had arrived in the public domain in July 2019. Later, in September 2021, the London Court of International Arbitration gave the final arbitration award in the matter related to the spat.

Meanwhile, thanking Dutta, Bhatia on May 18 told he and the company’s board would like to thank Ronojoy for effectively leading the business for almost four years with a steady hand through what has been the most turbulent period in the airline’s history and aviation globally. Now, more competition is ahead in the Indian skies. 

Thank you
