Overview
- IndiGo launched IndiGo Lite on Wednesday, July 1, opening bookings for a cabin‑baggage only fare that is valid for travel from July 15.
- The Lite fare provides a lower base price, an auto‑assigned seat and a 7 kg cabin allowance while excluding check‑in baggage.
- Travellers can purchase add‑ons such as checked baggage, preferred seats, meals and Fast Forward priority through IndiGo’s website, app or contact centre up to one hour before departure.
- The airline is selling the product only via direct channels to control distribution and to push ancillary sales, a move aimed at matching fares to customers who travel light.
- The launch comes as the Centre cut aviation turbine fuel prices by ₹5 per litre effective July 1, a modest operating‑cost relief that market reports say left InterGlobe Aviation shares largely steady.
