Another proposal is for availing advisory services from Saretsky in the capacity as "Special Advisor and payment of remuneration to him up to USD 70,000 per month for the said services from February 5, 2022 till March 31, 2023."

For the three months ended December 2021, IndiGo posted a profit after tax of Rs 129.8 crore. It had a loss of Rs 620.1 crore in the year-ago period. Reflecting signs of slow recovery in the pandemic-hit airline industry, IndiGo's revenue from operations jumped to Rs 9,294.8 crore in the latest December quarter compared to Rs 4,910 crore in the same period a year ago.

Total income surged 84.3 percent on an annual basis to Rs 9,480.1 crore in the third quarter of the current fiscal year.
