SpiceJets share dip a day after DGCA puts it under enhanced surveillance
SpiceJet shares dipped 2.95 per cent to Rs 28.97 in morning deals on the BSE.
SpiceJet shares fell 2.95 per cent a day after aviation regulator DGCA put the airline under "enhanced surveillance". The airline, which has been facing financial headwinds, however, denied the news. SpiceJet shares are trading 2.95 per cent down to Rs 28.97 in morning deals on the BSE.
The DGCA on Tuesday announced that it had put struggling airline Spicejet under "enhanced surveillance" w.e.f from June 22.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) puts an airline under enhanced surveillance to ensure that financially struggling airlines do not compromise on maintenance and safety.
The Supreme Court dealt a blow to Ajay Singh-led Spicejet last month when it ordered the airline to pay Rs 380 crore to its former promoter Kalanithi Maran and his Kal Airways in a case dating back to 2016 about a share transfer dispute between Ajay and Maran.
Ajay had taken over the airline from Maran in 2015.
The DGCA's decision also came at a time when many lessors are seeking repossession of aircraft leased to SpiceJet.
