DGCA doing operational, financial checks on SpiceJet: Aviation Min Naidu
India's aviation watchdog DGCA is checking SpiceJet's operations and finances, Civil Aviation Minister Naidu said, to make sure passengers don't suffer. The airline faces delays, a falling market share and unpaid salaries. The government can only intervene so much in a private airline, but SpiceJet got ₹150 crore under the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme. Safety must not be compromised.
Key Statutory Highlights

- SpiceJet has been given Rs 150 crore under the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you hold a SpiceJet booking, check your flight status before heading to the airport and keep your ticket and payment records safe, so you can raise a claim if a delay or cancellation happens.
