In November 2023, several reports revealed that 45-50 aircraft were already grounded due to the engine issue and the numbers would reach 70-80 by January-March 2024. However, this did not affect the operations of the airline as they retained 14 older aircraft, extended leases on 36 aircraft, and will lease 11 aircraft in November and 12 aircraft in January. Of the 23 A320s being leased, 11 will be on short term wet-lease, while the rest will be on dry-lease.<ref>{{Cite web |date=8 November 2023 |title=How IndiGo is flying smooth despite the grounding of planes - CNBC TV18 |url=https://www.cnbctv18.com/aviation/how-indigo-is-flying-smooth-despite-the-grounding-of-planes-18281181.htm |access-date=19 September 2024 |website=CNBCTV18 |language=en |archive-date=22 September 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240922135735/https://www.cnbctv18.com/aviation/how-indigo-is-flying-smooth-despite-the-grounding-of-planes-18281181.htm |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Majumder |first=Arindam |date=8 November 2023 |title=80 IndiGo aircraft will be grounded between January-March |url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/airlines-/-aviation/80-indigo-aircraft-will-be-grounded-between-january-march/articleshow/105048080.cms?from=mdr |access-date=19 September 2024 |work=The Economic Times |issn=0013-0389 |archive-date=19 September 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240919095019/https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/airlines-/-aviation/80-indigo-aircraft-will-be-grounded-between-january-march/articleshow/105048080.cms?from=mdr |url-status=live }}</ref> Later, the airline also leased 9 [[Boeing 737 MAX|Boeing 737 MAX 8]] aircraft from [[Qatar Airways]] for operations on the India-[[Doha]] route.<ref>{{Cite web |date=27 July 2024 |title=IndiGo secures Boeing 737 MAX aircraft from Qatar Airways amidst operational challenges |url=https://www.financialexpress.com/business/airlines-aviation-indigo-secures-boeing-737-max-aircraft-from-qatar-airways-amidst-operational-challenges-3566251/ |access-date=19 September 2024 |website=Financialexpress |language=en |archive-date=12 September 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240912062716/https://www.financialexpress.com/business/airlines-aviation-indigo-secures-boeing-737-max-aircraft-from-qatar-airways-amidst-operational-challenges-3566251/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=26 July 2024 |title=IndiGo to lease 6 Boeing 737 MAX planes from Qatar Airways to operate Doha flights |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/business/aviation/indigo-boeing-737-max-planes-qatar-airways-doha-flights-9477774/ |access-date=19 September 2024 |website=The Indian Express |language=en |archive-date=22 September 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240922135736/https://indianexpress.com/article/business/aviation/indigo-boeing-737-max-planes-qatar-airways-doha-flights-9477774/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

By February 2024, the number of grounded aircraft reached the mid 70s as per schedule. The reasons for grounding aircraft included both supply chain issues and PW1000G engine inspection. Grounding of more than 40 aircraft was due to PW's engine problem, while an additional 60 aircraft utilised the same engine and were to be grounded afterwards.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2 February 2024 |title=IndiGo has more than 70 aircraft grounded at the moment |url=https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/indigo-has-more-than-70-aircraft-grounded-at-the-moment-12182781.html |access-date=19 September 2024 |website=Financial Express |archive-date=19 September 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240919084523/https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/indigo-has-more-than-70-aircraft-grounded-at-the-moment-12182781.html |url-status=live }}</ref>
