New Delhi, Nov 4 (PTI) InterGlobe Aviation, the parent of the country’s largest airline IndiGo, on Tuesday reported a net loss of Rs 2,582.10 crore for the three months ended September, as the bottom line was mainly impacted by currency movements.

“The year began with significant external challenges across the industry, but we saw stabilisation in July and a strong recovery through August and September. Looking ahead, we have scaled up our operational plans for the second half to meet demand and continue driving growth.

“With that, we have nudged up our capacity guidance for the full financial year 2026 to early teens growth,” he said in a release.
