IndiGo Crisis Reveals Aviation Sector Issues, Competition Probe Underway

IndiGo's recent crisis highlights structural issues in India's aviation sector, marked by high market concentration with IndiGo and Air India dominating 86% of the domestic market. The airline's non-adherence to Flight Duty Time Limit regulations, intended to prevent pilot fatigue, led to flight cancellations and exorbitant pricing, causing passenger inconvenience. The Competition Commission of India is investigating IndiGo for potential abuse of dominant position, as the airline's market share allows it to impose decisions without significant customer loss.
