Subscribe to enjoy similar stories. NEW DELHI/MUMBAI : The Directorate General of Civil Aviation’s (DGCA) decision to impose a financial penalty and issue a warning to IndiGo chief executive officer (CEO) Pieter Elbers and chief operating officer (COO) Isidre Porqueras over the weekend has ended more than a month-long regulatory row with the country’s largest airline that was triggered by widespread flight cancellations early December. While the move lifts the immediate regulatory overhang, questions remain over whether IndiGo can realistically induct enough pilots to meet India’s staffing and flight duty norms, according to four consultants and pilots.
