Singh, who served at the helm of IndiGo’s rival, Air India Express, for five years, will join India’s largest carrier on April 6.
IndiGo has a roughly 65% market share in India, the world’s fastest-growing aviation market. It cancelled 4,500 flights in December in what was the biggest crisis in IndiGo’s 20-year history.

Regulators later reprimanded Elbers for “inadequate overall oversight of flight operations and crisis management”.
Singh will report to IndiGo co-founder and managing director Rahul Bhatia, who is leading the airline in the interim.
