General Cancellation & Reschedule Notes

These are IndiGo's official DOMESTIC cancellation charges effective 1 September 2026, per passenger per sector. Each fee is charged as whichever is LOWER of the amount shown or your base fare plus fuel surcharge, so on a cheap ticket you never pay more than the fare itself. IndiGo's real slab boundary is 72 hours, not 48: inside 72 hours Saver, Flexi Plus, Upfront and Stretch all move to their higher amount, while Stretch Plus stays at ₹999. Cancellation is allowed up to 3 hours before a domestic departure. Statutory taxes are refundable on request even on non-refundable fares. International cancellation is priced by destination zone and is substantially higher.

Changing the date is normally cheaper than cancelling and rebooking, because you pay only the change fee plus any fare difference. The domestic fees above are IndiGo's official rates effective 1 September 2026, and each is also capped at whichever is lower of the fee or your base fare plus fuel surcharge. Upfront, Stretch and Stretch Plus change free at 72 hours or more before departure. Free cancellation or change is available inside the DGCA lock-in window, which is 24 hours for bookings made through HappyFares or any travel agent and 48 hours booking direct on goindigo.in, for tickets bought 7 or more days before a domestic departure.

DGCA passenger rights: Under India's Civil Aviation Requirements, statutory taxes (PSF, UDF, GST on taxes) are always refundable on request even for non-refundable fares. If IndiGo cancels your flight, you are entitled to a full refund or alternate flight at no extra cost.
