Domestic ATF Stable, International Rates Skyrocket!
Toh hua yun ki, May mahine ke liye domestic Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) prices ko change nahi kiya gaya hai. Yeh IndiGo aur SpiceJet jaise Indian carriers ke liye ek bahut zaruri cost stabilization hai, kyunki fuel cost unke operational expenses ka 30% se 60% tak hota hai.
International Flights Ka Kharcha Badha
Par yeh relief temporary lagti hai, kyunki international routes ke liye ATF prices mein $76.55 per kilolitre ka hike dekhne ko mila hai. Ab international ATF cost $1,511.86 per KL ho gaya hai. Yeh difference un airlines ke liye tension wala hai jinka international network bada hai.
Stocks Gire, Industry Band Hone Ka Khatra?
Is sab drama se pehle hi market mein impact dikh raha tha. InterGlobe Aviation (IndiGo) ka share 1% se zyada gir kar ₹4,295.30 par aa gaya tha, aur SpiceJet ke shares toh 4.37% gir kar ₹13.36 par pahunch gaye the. Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA) ne toh warned kiya hai ki agar global crude oil prices aur geopolitical tensions aise hi badhte rahe, toh industry band hone ke verge par aa sakti hai.
Company Ki Financial Health:
Ab companies ki financial picture dekhte hain. IndiGo, jo market leader hai, uska market capitalization aur Return on Equity (ROE) 104% tak hai. Lekin bhai, un par long-term debt bhi kaafi hai, debt-to-equity ratio 7.13 hai.
SpiceJet ki haalat thodi zyada nazuk hai. Unka market cap kam hai, persistent losses ho rahe hain, aur P/E ratio negative hai. Pichle 12 mahine mein unhone ₹775 crore ka net loss report kiya hai.
Analysts Kya Kehte Hain?
Analysts mostly IndiGo ko 'Buy' rate kar rahe hain aur price targets mein upside expect kar rahe hain. Lekin SpiceJet ke liye outlook bearish hai, 'Sell' ya 'Hold' recommendations mil rahi hain.
Sector Facing Massive Losses
Badi baat yeh hai ki domestic passenger traffic 7% se 10% FY2026 tak grow hone ki ummeed hai, lekin pure Indian aviation sector ko ₹20,000 se ₹30,000 crore ka net loss hone ka andaaza hai. Fuel aur lease payments ke high costs iske main reasons hain.
Overall, SpiceJet ki financial struggles uski fundraising options ko limit karti hain. IndiGo ka high leverage bhi ek risk hai. Sector ko temporary fuel price stability se thoda sukoon milega, par overall financial health aur government support par dependence bani rahegi.
