In April, when we discussed the exit of Aditya Ghosh from Indigo, we said there was a churn afoot at Indigo. That churn has kept on churning. Multiple sources have told Moneycontrol that a possible difference of opinion between Indigo founders Rahul Bhatia and Rakesh Gangwal may be at the heart of the ongoing top management rejig at Indigo. These differences, Prince Mathews Thomas reports for Moneycontrol, may even have led to the resignation of Greg Taylor, a senior advisor who was tipped to be the next CEO. Although the airline is yet to comment on the exit, The Financial Express and Business Standard have said that Taylor is on the way out. There is speculation also that the recent appointment of Ronojoy Dutta as a Principal Consultant at Indigo may have also had a role to play in Taylor doing an exit, stage left. Dutta is now said to be the favourite to take on the top job.

The story of the missing pilot in the airline is what we will dig deeper into on this edition of Digging Deeper. My name is Rakesh, and this is Moneycontrol.
