IndiGo Dips After Gangwal Stake Sale; SEBI RA Sees ₹5,000 As Key Support

Indigo's shares declined by 2% on Tuesday following reports of a stake reduction by its promoter family. 

According to a Reuters report, Rakesh Gangwal and The Chinkerpoo Family Trust were identified as the selling shareholders, with Rakesh Gangwal reportedly selling a 5.7% stake in the airline through a block deal valued at approximately $1.36 billion. 

The report indicated that the shares were sold at a price of ₹5,230.50.

SEBI-registered analyst Dhwani Patel also highlighted that co-founder Rakesh Gangwal’s decision to offload stake has weighed on the stock’s performance. 

On technical charts, the stock experienced a gap-down opening on Tuesday and is poised to retest its 50-day exponential moving average on the downside. 

Patel adds that having breached this support, there is potential for the stock to test the 38.2% retracement level around ₹5,000. 

She also noted that IndiGo delivered a robust financial performance in the fourth quarter of FY25, with net profit surging 62% year-on-year to ₹3,067 crore, propelled by strong travel demand. Revenue for the quarter climbed 24% to ₹22,152 crore.

Data from Stocktwits shows that retail sentiment remains ‘bullish’ on this counter amid ‘high’ message volumes.

Indigo shares gained 17% year-to-date (YTD).
