    IndiGo's 30 planes grounded due to supply chain disruptions

    By PTI When contacted, an IndiGo spokesperson on Monday confirmed to PTI that around 30 aircraft are on the ground.
    "As we work on various cost-efficient countermeasures with our OEM partners, the endeavour is to minimise the economic impact of around 30 AOG (Aircraft on Ground), resulting from this global disruption," the spokesperson said.
    The carrier has a domestic market share of more than 57 percent.
    These planes, which account for around 10-12 percent of the Indian fleet, are grounded due to maintenance or engine-related issues. "
