Data made public by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) on Tuesday revealed that domestic air traffic increased by almost 27% to 114.07 lakh last month from 89.85 lakh during the same month last year.
Domestic travel has increased leading to a higher number of passengers on board, growth of 4% can be seen in the last month in the aviation sector.
InterGlobe Aviation, the parent company of IndiGo, had a 2.37% decline in its stock price, reaching an intraday low of Rs 1,974.65. SpiceJet's shares dipped 1.4% while Jet Airways' stock increased 4.5%.
Amidst an increase in bird strike instances, DGCA issues rules to reduce occurrences of planes colliding with birds and other animals at airports throughout India.
The government had June started discussions with airlines about ridding of the price bands for passenger fares.

After an examination showed that SpiceJet had failed to develop "a safe, efficient, and reliable" service, the DGCA reduced the airline's authorised departures by 50% for a period of eight weeks.
The development follows several reports of passengers being denied boarding by a number of airlines despite having valid tickets and arriving on time.

Jet Airways completed all proving flights on May 17 and is currently waiting for the DGCA to grant it an air operator certificate (AOC). The airline conducted the second — and final — set of two proving flights with 31 people aboard, including officials from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, according to sources (DGCA).
IndiGo ranks first for carrying 58.61 lakh passengers, the highest number of passengers in March.
Flights under air bubble arrangements and international cargo flights are allowed to continue, the aviation regulator has said.
The step comes a day after India declared its verdict to restrict the import of drones, an action that effectively prevents a developing market for China’s SZ DJI Technology Co.
