New Delhi, November 21: In a bid to prevent airlines from jacking up prices abruptly due to heightened demand, government has asked the carriers to furnish route-wise tariff on their entire network in the beginning of each month.
In a latest circular, aviation regulator Director General of Civil Aviation directed the airlines to “furnish a copy of the route-wise tariff across its network in various fare categories, in the manner it is offered in the market, to DGCA on the first day of every calendar month”.
The circular said that any “significant and noticeable change” in the established tariff already filed, should be reported to DGCA “within 24 hours of effecting such changes”.
The regulator also asked the airlines to publish air fares on their websites or in daily newspapers on a regular basis.
