On Wednesday, IndiGo airline said its net loss narrowed to Rs 1,064.3 crore for June 30, 2022. It reported a net loss of Rs 3,174.2 crore last year. The revenue from operations rose 328 per cent to Rs 12,855.3 crore from Rs 3,007 crore.

CEO Ronojoy Dutta said, “Our revenue performance this quarter was impressive. We reported the highest ever revenue generated by the company and thereby produced profits at an operational level. However, cost pressures on fuel and foreign exchange prevented us from translating this strong revenue performance into net profitability. “While our financial performance in the second quarter will be challenged by weak seasonality, the long-term revenue trend remains strong.”
