In this episode, we sit down with Aditya Ghosh, the business powerhouse behind Indigo’s meteoric rise and a key player in the Indian aviation industry. From his unlikely start in law to building one of the most profitable airlines in Asia, Aditya shares raw insights on leadership, decision-making, and what it really takes to scale in a cutthroat market.
Why did Indigo succeed while others failed? What’s broken in India’s aviation model? And how do you build a winning culture in an industry where margins are razor-thin? Aditya doesn’t hold back as we unpack the real stories behind Indigo, American Airlines, and even the fall of Air India.
We also dive into what most entrepreneurs get wrong about cost, competition, and culture. How do you know when it’s time to walk away? And what does it actually mean to "deserve to win"? From toxic work environments to delayed flight losses, this conversation is filled with practical wisdom and hard-earned truths.
Towards the end, Aditya opens up about working with Ritesh Agarwal and Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, and the life lessons he’s picked up along the way. If you're building something big or thinking of starting, this episode is packed with insights you won't find in business school.
