IndiGo, India’s leading airline, has appointed Vikram Singh Mehta as its new Chairman, succeeding Venkataramani Sumantran, who completed his five-year term. Mehta, a board member since May 2022, brings extensive experience from his roles at Shell and as an IAS officer. This transition occurs as IndiGo co-founder Rakesh Gangwal and his family reduced their stake in the airline.
