IndiGo in Early Talks with Embraer for Potential Large Regional Jet Order
IndiGo's parent company, InterGlobe Aviation, is in early discussions with Brazil's Embraer for a potential large order of E2 regional jets. The aircraft could replace IndiGo's ATR turboprops and increase capacity. A deal, possibly worth billions, would be Embraer's largest in India and support plans for local assembly. Embraer requires orders for at least 200 E175 jets before considering an Indian manufacturing facility. Talks remain confidential with no guarantee of a final agreement.
