India's IndiGo agrees to buy 250 Airbus A320neo aircraft

Indian budget carrier IndiGo has agreed to buy 250 single-aisle A320neo aircraft from Airbus SA, the companies said on Wednesday, potentially marking the largest number of jets ever sold by the European planemaker in a single order. The deal would be worth $25.7 billion (16.17 billion pounds) at list prices, although airlines typically get a discount and the memorandum of understanding between the two must still be confirmed as firm orders.
