INDIA: Budget Airline Indigo Gaining

India's budget airline IndiGo is gaining traction among the growing ranks of Indian air passengers with its affordable airfares and on-time performance.

Despite its economic growth, India is still lacking in well-developed public transportation networks in many of its cities.

To further develop its economy, the so-called "sleeping elephant" is rushing to build an extensive web of public transportation services, including the use of budget airlines and urban commuter rail systems, all across the country.
