This rebound comes after a period of volatility triggered by heightened border tensions, which had forced the temporary closure of airports in key northern cities including Dharamshala, Leh, and Srinagar. Last week, Indian Hotels saw a steep 10% decline, while IndiGo and IRCTC shares dropped between 3.5% and 4.5%. While IndiGo and IRCTC have now recovered most of those losses, Indian Hotels continues to trade below its pre-drop levels.
