With the Income Tax Department imposing a penalty of Rs 944.20 crore on IndiGo, India's largest airline has termed the order "erroneous" and vowed to challenge it legally.
Travellers can now rejoice as IndiGo has launched a daily direct flight from Kolkata’s Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport to the popular tourist destination of Phuket, Thailand. This new route is expected to meet the rising demand for seamless travel between India and Southeast Asia, offering greater convenience and boosting tourism and business ties.
The Airports Authority of India (AAI) extended its best wishes to IndiGo for this milestone, highlighting its commitment to providing world-class infrastructure, safety, and operational efficiency to support such ventures.
