IndiGo Shares Climb 1.9% Post Q2 Results Amid Operational Resilience and Revenue Growth

InterGlobe Aviation Ltd, the parent company of IndiGo, witnessed its shares increase by 1.9% after announcing its Q2 financial results. The airline reported a net loss of ₹2,582 crore for Q2FY26, wider than the ₹988 crore loss in the same quarter last year, primarily due to adverse foreign exchange impacts.

However, revenue from operations rose 9.3% year-on-year to ₹18,555 crore driven by higher passenger traffic and increased ancillary income. Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortisation (EBITDA) surged 85% to ₹3,472 crore, reflecting operational resilience and improved cost management.

CEO Pieter Elbers highlighted the company's focus on capacity optimization during weaker seasonal periods alongside robust customer appreciation and on-time performance leadership. Despite currency headwinds, operational parameters such as passenger yields and revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) improved, supporting a cautiously optimistic outlook.
