IndiGo’s stock dipped 4% after reporting a 77.5% year-on-year decline in Q3FY26 consolidated profit, mainly due to one-off expenses linked to labour law compliance and operational disruptions.
Revenue increased by over 6%, driven by steady passenger traffic; however, margins were under pressure. Analysts note that while near-term results are weak, demand recovery and the airline’s dominant market position could support long-term growth.
Brokers continue to recommend holding or buying, citing strong fundamentals despite the short-term profit hit and ongoing cost challenges.
