IndiGo posts biggest single-day gain in 16 months

[hfe_template id='11223'] [ad_1]
Mumbai: Shares of InterGlobe Aviation, parent of IndiGo, jumped over 4% - the highest single-day gain in 16 months - after the Directorate General of Civil Aviation's penalty on the airline for the mass flight cancellations in December was considered lower than what investors expected.

The stock closed 4.2% higher at ₹4,937- emerging as the top gainer on the Nifty on Monday. Benchmark Nifty declined 0.4%. This is IndiGo's biggest advance in a day since August 2024.


"The DGCA's penalty at ₹22 crore was much lower anticipated, which prompted investors to buy," said Sunny Agrawal, head of Fundamental Research at SBI Securities. He said Indigo has lowered operational capacity to comply with the regulations.

In early December, the airline cancelled several flights, exacerbated by the implementation of a time limit for crew and grounding of A320 fleet due to software glitches. The disruptions drew criticism as thousands of passengers were left stranded.


"Indigo shares witnessed significant correction since the disruption in December, but given the cooling of issues with DGCA, it is a good company at a cheaper price currently," said Sonam Srivastava, founder and CEO, Wright Research.

Srivastava said the easing of supply-side issues and the softening of crude oil prices are expected to be a tailwind for the company.

IndiGo shares are down 13% since early December. "The company's December quarter results are expected to be on the weaker side due to the disruptions in peak travel season and the reduced operations could weigh on the company until March," said Agrawal.

The escalation of tensions involving the United States, Israel and Iran has intensified market anxiety in recent days, pushing crude oil prices sharply higher and triggering a global risk-off sentiment. However, analysts note that volatility had already been building even before the conflict escalated, reflecting broader concerns around global growth, foreign capital outflows and stretched valuations in equities. The heightened uncertainty translated into a sharp ...
