New Delhi: Take fewer than the allowed 56 privilege leaves (PL) annually and earn up to Rs 87,000 more per month along with an extra Rs 18 lakh over three years! Facing acute shortage of captains, IndiGo has dangled this carrot before its commanders. While a pilot can fly for maximum 1,000 hours in 12 consecutive months, the rostering system and contracts with pilots means airlines rarely hit this figure. IndiGo sources they get 'lucky' by getting a pilot to fly for 900 hours in 12 months straight.
The average monthly salary of an IndiGo captain (without factoring in components like company’s provident fund contribution, gratuity and crew bonus of about 5%) taking 56 PLs is Rs 6,01,250. Those opting for 42 PLs will see a hike of Rs 35,000 and those opting for 22 PLs in a year will see their monthly salary rise by Rs 86,500.
IndiGo’s senior VP (flight operations) Captain Ashim Mittra sent a mail to his captains on Saturday, informing them about the launch of the “new leave programs with enhanced benefits”. “I am pleased to introduce two additional leave programs with enhanced pay benefits which will be our new standard leave programs going forward. Those of you who opt to switch to these will benefit from enhanced salary and an additional one-time Incentive of Rs 18 lakh… Those who choose to remain on their current leave programs may continue to do so,” Mittra’s mail says.
