India's largest airline, IndiGo, says it has "normalised" operations after cancelling more than 3,000 flights last week due to what officials described as poor pilot roster planning, a crisis that left thousands of passengers stranded.
This came as authorities ordered IndiGo to cut 10% of its winter schedule - double the reduction first announced - a move that could see more than 200 daily flights cancelled.
Federal Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu said the ministry "considers it necessary to curtail the overall IndiGo routes" to help restore stability.
He added that despite the schedule cut, "IndiGo will continue to cover all its destinations as before".
The airline has also been ordered to submit its revised flight schedule to the regulator by Wednesday.
