What kind of answer is this? The question was simple (already answered by Rahul), why to create such a kind of complication and that is too without giving the actual answer?
"50% concession in base fair from AirIndia through their offfices with their contact number for further assistance" was more than sufficient and that exactly Rahul did and it was perfect answer of this question. Why are we trying to become more descriptive unnecessarily, and while doing that sound ambiguous and confusing?

Regarding your questions about Air India concessions, it is helpful to note that Air India was originally a public sector institution controlled by the Government of India. This historical background is why they have traditionally provided fare concessions for various groups, including Bharat Ratna awardees, Members of Parliament, and persons with disabilities. Because the government maintained management control and subsidized these fares, many of these provisions have continued even following the airline's privatization. In contrast, airlines such as IndiGo are entirely private entities. The government does not exercise the same level of control over their pricing structures, and they generally treat all passengers as customers without specific subsidies. Consequently, we should not necessarily expect private carriers to offer the same concessions provided by a government-linked entity like Air India. In terms of availing these benefits, these concessions are typically available in India if you purchase your tickets offline at an Air India office. This often results in the best available base fare, though please keep in mind that applicable taxes remain the same.

Is it only for domestic flights? You said that the one needs to contact their office for it, does that mean that the ticket needs to be bought offline?

However, nothing is mentioned on Indigo’s website at least and I called the customer care of Indigo up on which they directed me to enquire in the ticket counter of the airport. The manager made me wait for an hour there only to be told that there is no such policy with Indigo and requested me to get any circular/document from the company stating the same. So, are there any concessions for us? If so, what is the way to avail it? Waiting for the reply with anticipation. Anirudh Rao -- "every human is disabled because, none has got the wings to fly".
