Overall, IndiGo's existing fleet consists of more than 400 aircraft.

IndiGo, the country’s largest airline by market share, has placed orders for the purchase of 30 more wide-body aircraft from Airbus.

The carrier signed a contract with the European aircraft maker to convert 30 purchase rights for the Airbus A350-900 into firm orders. The move will effectively double its wide-body order to 60 aircraft, the airline said in a statement on Friday.

Deliveries are expected 2027 onwards, as the airline looks to expand its presence on international routes. Overall, IndiGo’s existing fleet consists of more than 400 aircraft. IndiGo and Airbus had already signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for these additional 30 aircraft in June 2025.
