Salaries of Indigo pilots to further decline
The pilots of IndiGo have been told to take a salary cut of further 28% which will come into effect from September 1. The company had already announced a salary cut for its pilots last month. The sources had confirmed that the pay cut stands somewhere around 40%.
However, the latest announcement will not have any effect on the lower staff as they have not been handed a salary cut from the management. The airline industry had taken a huge hit amidst the cancellation of flight operations due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
