Govt enforces nationwide airfare caps amid IndiGo crisis; what we know so far

The government has imposed nationwide fare caps on domestic flights, ranging from INR 7,500 to INR 18,000 based on distance, to protect passengers from opportunistic pricing. This intervention follows widespread IndiGo flight cancellations due to crew-related issues, which caused airfares to skyrocket. The directive aims to stabilize the market until operations fully recover.
