IndiGo CEO Ronojoy Dutta rolls back pay cut in April salary of employees
Indigo on Thursday has assured all its employees that the salary of April will not be deducted. In an email to all the employees, CEO Ronojoy Dutta said: "In deference to our government's wishes of not reducing pay during the lockdown, we have decided not to implement the previously announced pay cuts during the month of April.
"However, your Excom members and SVPs have volunteered to take pay cuts this month. For everyone else, you can expect your April salaries to be paid with the pay cuts," he added.
Last month, air carrier Indigo has announced that they would trim employee salaries by 25 per cent including CEO Ronojoy Dutta due to 'precipitous drop in revenues'.
