Besides Bengaluru-Belgaum flight, the airline has also announced additional flights on the Bengaluru-Madurai route at an all-inclusive price of Rs. 2,299.
"Belgaum with its strong historical significance and nature tourism presents a huge potential for enhancing tourism and trade out of Karnataka," said William Boulter, chief commercial officer, IndiGo.
"These flights will strengthen point-to-point connectivity out of Bengaluru and enhance mobility within southern India," he added.
Expanding its international operations, IndiGo also announced that it will restart daily non-stop flights on the Delhi-Singapore route from September 12.
The low-cost carrier will also add a second flight frequency on the Delhi-Doha route from September 16.
The airline had decided to discontinue Delhi-Doha route flights earlier, during 2014-15 due to stiff competition on the route from full-service carriers such as Jet Airways and Singapore Airlines.
Jet Airways shut down its operations on April 17 due to lack of funds.
Meanwhile, Vistara, a full-service carrier and a joint venture of Tata group and Singapore Airlines, started its international operations with flights on the Delhi-Singapore route from August 6.
