The revised charges will apply to all new bookings made from 0001 hours on October 6, 2026, the airline said in a statement on Monday, October 5.<\/p>\n
IndiGo said ATF prices have remained volatile in recent months, with the latest month-on-month increase exceeding 14%, taking costs to levels among the highest in the last decade.<\/p>\n
ATF prices for domestic airlines rose by \u20b916 per litre, or about 13.2%, from October 1, taking the rate to \u20b9137 per litre from \u20b9121. This was the third consecutive monthly increase, following hikes in August and September.<\/p>\n
IndiGo’s new domestic fuel charges<\/strong><\/p>\n The revised charges are higher across all domestic distance slabs compared with the rates IndiGo introduced in April.<\/p>\n International fuel charges<\/strong><\/p>\n IndiGo has also revised the fuel charge for international routes.<\/p>\n IndiGo said fully offsetting the increase in fuel costs would have required a \u201csignificantly larger increase\u201d in fuel charges, but it has opted for what it described as a measured and relatively modest adjustment to limit the impact on passengers.<\/p>\n When did IndiGo last raise fuel charges?<\/strong><\/p>\n IndiGo’s most recent previous revision was in April 2026, when it replaced the flat domestic fuel charge introduced in March with a distance-based structure of \u20b9275 to \u20b9950. International charges were also sharply revised at the time, with the maximum charge reaching \u20b910,000 for the UK and Europe.<\/p>\n That followed the airline’s March 2026 introduction of a fuel charge, when it initially levied \u20b9425 on domestic flights and charges ranging from \u20b9900 to \u20b92,300 on international routes.The latest increase comes as ATF has risen for three consecutive months, with the October increase following hikes in August and September.<\/p>\n ATF can account for up to around 40% of airline operating costs, making fuel prices a key determinant of airline costs and fares.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
