The stock has been experiencing a rally since Tuesday of this week.

In comparison to the benchmark Sensex, which saw a 5 percent increase, the airline stock has demonstrated a substantial rally of 30.53 percent on the BSE year-to-date.

The overall positive trend in the equity market has also contributed to the upward momentum of the company's stock.

The 30-share BSE Sensex surged 499.39 points or 0.79 percent to settle at its lifetime closing high of 63,915.42 on Wednesday. During the day, the index jumped 634.41 points or 1 percent to hit its all-time intra-day peak of 64,050.44.

On Monday of last week, IndiGo made a significant announcement regarding its plans for long-term growth.

The airline placed a firm order to purchase 500 narrow-body planes from Airbus, marking the largest-ever aircraft order by any airline with Airbus.

As the largest domestic carrier in the country, IndiGo is not only focused on expanding its domestic operations but also aims to enhance its international presence.

In May, the airline held a dominant domestic market share of 61.4 percent, highlighting its strong position in the industry.
