AirAsia India is offering all-inclusive tickets starting at Rs 950 on select one-way flights in a limited period promotional scheme.

The fares include airport taxes (except for selected airports where airport tax is collected at the point of departure) and are valid for new purchases only, AirAsia added.

The domestic aviation market has been recording double-digit percentage growth for many months, boosted by competitive airfares.
