Travel and tourism-related stocks traded in the red on Monday after Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged citizens to reduce discretionary spending on foreign travel and fuel consumption amid concerns over the impact of the West Asia war on India’s foreign exchange outflows.
Among the measures suggested, Modi asked people to reduce petrol and diesel usage by relying more on metros and public transport, avoid unnecessary foreign travel, overseas vacations and destination weddings, and defer non-essential gold purchases for one year.
InterGlobe Aviation, the parent company of IndiGo, declined more than 5 per cent to ₹4,287.10 from the previous close of ₹4,522.70 amid concerns that any moderation in leisure and international travel demand could impact passenger traffic growth.
