1. All passengers flying into Gujarat are supposed to carry RTPCR reports with test done within 72 hrs of flight.
2. Indigo is not forcing you, it is the state government’s rule, Indigo is just implementing it. Other airlines will do the same.
3. Any ICMR approved lab is fine, pvt or govt lab.
4. Covid test prices are already regulated by state govts, it may not be possible to find a pvt lab that does it at an even better price.
5. You can try govt lab if you want it at cheaper cost, however expect higher turnaround times than pvt lab

Within 72 hr report is ok bro and test can be done in any private lab. May be customer care only informed about private mode.
If you have report within 72h you can travel don’t worry they can’t force

My friend’s uncle did it without going to hospital …
They were going to Dubai and at the airport the checking authority refused to accept the Corona report so the uncle called to one of the hospitals in Jaipur and got it done ….
If u have contacts in hospital line everything is possible ….
Try for jugaad

Don’t play with other’s lives..
It is for safety of the fellow passengers & flight crew so that they don’t get infected if you are CoViD patient(many don’t show symptoms, even though they are CoViD ➕ve)
Why not take the test genuinely or postpone the journey.?
