IndiGo challenges Rs 900 Cr customs duty on re-imported aircraft parts in Delhi HC.
- •IndiGo seeks over Rs 900 crore customs duty refund from the Delhi High Court.
- •The refund is for duty paid on aircraft parts re-imported after overseas repairs.
- •IndiGo argues re-import after repairs is a service, not goods, leading to double taxation.
- •A Delhi High Court judge recused from the case due to a conflict of interest.
- •IndiGo paid the duty "under protest" to prevent aircraft grounding, citing a prior favorable ruling.
Why It Matters: This case impacts all Indian airlines' recurring costs for aircraft repairs.
