SpiceJet has appointed former IndiGo executive Sanjay Kumar as Executive Director to be entrusted with leading growth initiatives and optimizing operations.
With over three decades of aviation experience, Kumar will report directly to Chairman Ajay Singh, effective November 3, 2025.
Kumar’s appointment comes after the airline posted a net loss in the first quarter of FY26 and tackles financial and operational hurdles, seeking a turnaround through fleet expansion and debt restructuring.
Kumar has earlier served in key positions, including Chief Commercial Officer and Chief Strategy & Revenue Officer at IndiGo, and held leadership roles as President & CEO at InterGlobe Technology Quotient and Chief Operating Officer at AirAsia India.
SpiceJet recently announced that it will run 250 flights daily in its Winter 2025 schedule, up from 125 daily flights last summer and 150 daily flights in the previous winter season.
