InterGlobe Aviation Ltd, the parent company of India's largest airline IndiGo, has seen a massive drop in its market capitalization.

The decline comes as IndiGo continues to face operational disruptions and mass flight cancellations across the country.

On December 5, IndiGo canceled all its flights from Delhi's Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport till midnight due to insufficient roster arrangements for new aviation safety norms.

The airline canceled 102 flights at Bengaluru, leaving hundreds of passengers stranded overnight.

IndiGo has informed the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) that it will restore full operations by February 10.

Meanwhile, DGCA has withdrawn the rule that prohibited airlines from substituting crew's weekly rest with accumulated leave to ease IndiGo's crisis.
