(PTI): Budget carrier IndiGo on Thursday announced a special bonus for its staff.
The decision comes ahead of the airline’s fourth quarter and full-year results, likely to be announced late next month, and also less than a week after the airline placed an order for 30 wide-body A350 aircraft.
In a communication to the staff, the airline said it would give a one-time special bonus equivalent to “1.5 months’ basic salary”, according to two sources. This amount will be disbursed to employees, along with the salary for May as an ex-gratia sum.
