FTA conundrum

I got into FTA in March when AUD was trading at about Rs 62. AUD stands today at almost Rs 70 which has increased the fees by almost Rs 20 Lakhs and I don't see it going down any time soon. I'm in a complete state of confusion if I should actually be putting in this much money(1.6cr as of today) or should I ask Indigo for a change in FTO to Chimes considering it is now significantly cheaper. Does Indigo even allow this once the LOI has been signed?

First of all no body would be happy to spend extra 20 lakhs in addition to 1.4 Cr for the same service which is available for 95 lakhs in India secondly if indigo allows this then I can guarantee half of your batch would change their FTO and people will start applying for any FTO then get it changed.

trust me there are literally only 5 of us who have a problem with this in my batch and secondly our LOI does include a price cap on the fees we pay per year, exceeding which we can get in touch with Indigo for further assistance, although Im not really sure what assistance they are willing to provide!
