what happened
Shares of InterGlobe Aviation, the parent company of IndiGo, rose 3.5% on Tuesday to Rs 5,092, becoming the top gainer on the Nifty 50. The stock has now climbed for three sessions in a row, gaining 8.9% over that period. The move followed a drop of more than 7% in Brent on Monday, after the US and Iran signalled readiness to pursue peace talks. Brent futures settled at $104.77 a barrel, down $8.66, and held near $104.70 on Tuesday.
Lower oil prices matter especially for airlines, since aviation turbine fuel (ATF) makes up a large share of their operating costs. IndiGo had been dealing with high fuel expenses, though strong passenger yields helped offset part of the pressure on profitability.
why it matters
Cheaper crude directly eases airline costs, which can support margins. New airfare pricing rules notified by the Centre and brokerage 'buy' ratings from Jefferies, Nomura and HSBC after the September-quarter results have also supported the stock.
