IndiGo will increase ticket prices by introducing a fuel surcharge on all domestic and international flights starting March 14. The airline said the decision follows a sharp rise in aviation fuel prices linked to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the ongoing conflict involving Iran, Israel and the United States. According to the airline, jet fuel prices in the region have risen by more than 85 percent, significantly raising operating costs. The surcharge will range from ₹425 for domestic flights to ₹2,300 for routes to Europe. IndiGo said the move is meant to partly offset rising costs while limiting the financial burden on passengers.
