IndiGo Announces Fuel Surcharge on Domestic and International Flights

India's biggest airline, IndiGo, announced on Friday that it will impose a fuel surcharge on domestic and international flight tickets starting March 14. This is due to a sharp increase in aviation turbine fuel prices following tensions in West Asia.

The fuel surcharge will be between Rs. 425 and Rs. 2,300, depending on routes. Airlines are imposing this increase now as jet fuel prices have gone up due to ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Gulf region.

"IndiGo, India's leading airline, is implementing a fuel surcharge on domestic and international routes from March 14, 2026. This move has been taken due to the significant increase in fuel prices due to the ongoing geopolitical issues in West Asia," the airline said.
