Shares of Skyways Air Services experienced a significant rally on Friday, September 18, 2026, surging 14.58 percent to reach an intraday high of Rs 135.20. This strong performance follows the company's market debut on September 1, where its stock initially listed at a discount to its initial public offering (IPO) price of Rs 138.
Robust Financial Performance Drives Share Price

- Revenue Growth: Consolidated revenue from operations soared by 93.10 percent year-on-year (YoY) to Rs 1,216.54 crore in Q1 FY27, a significant increase from Rs 630 crore reported in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

The company has set October 9 as the record date to determine the eligibility of shareholders for this dividend.
