These Will Be The Salaries Of Pilots Of IndiGo In 2025

IndiGo Airlines is India's biggest airline in terms of fleet size and market share. It operates flights to over 120 destinations globally, offering excellent connectivity both within India and internationally. Known for its reliable on-time performance, IndiGo is a familiar presence at Indian airports.

Because IndiGo focuses on low-cost and short-haul flights, it doesn't have second officers. This means all its pilots are either first officers or captains.

First officers at IndiGo are usually graduates of the airline’s cadet program or pilots from other airlines with less experience. They handle communication during flights and assist the captain in ensuring passengers are safely transported.

First officers at IndiGo earn a monthly salary between ₹1.5 lakhs and ₹2.5 lakhs, which totals ₹18 lakh to ₹30 lakh annually (around $21,000 to $35,000). The salary depends on their experience and negotiation factors.

Captains at IndiGo are in charge of flying the plane and ensuring the safety of passengers and crew. They have more experience than first officers. Senior captains, with over ten years of experience, may also be involved in fleet management and training first officers to become captains.

Captains at IndiGo earn a monthly salary between ₹5 lakhs and ₹10 lakhs, which totals ₹60 lakhs to ₹1.20 crores annually (around $70,000 to $140,000). The salary depends on their experience and seniority.
