Questions people ask about MakeMyTrip refund complaints

What is this MakeMyTrip complaint about?
A passenger says he paid ₹4,064 for an Akasa Air flight from New Delhi to Ayodhya booked through MakeMyTrip, that the airline cancelled the flight, and that his refund was ₹3,431 with ₹633 shown as deductions. He has asked for the full amount and an explanation.
How much was deducted from the refund?
The MakeMyTrip refund summary shows ₹4,064 paid, ₹633 in total deductions and ₹3,431 processed as the refund, against refund request M****V raised on 26 September 2026.
Can money be deducted when the airline cancels the flight?
Under India's DGCA rules on refunds, a passenger is entitled to a refund of the fare and the statutory taxes when an airline cancels a flight, and airline cancellation charges are not applicable. Booking platforms may separately retain their own convenience or service fee, which is why the breakup matters. What the ₹633 covers here, and who retained it, is what MakeMyTrip is invited to explain.
Has MakeMyTrip responded to this complaint?
PetitionFox has invited MakeMyTrip to respond publicly on this case file. Its current reply status is: MakeMyTrip has not responded to a request for comment sent on 29 Sept 2026. It has been open 13 days.. Any response is published here in full.
How do I dispute a refund deduction on a cancelled flight?
Ask the platform in writing for the deduction breakup against your refund reference, and ask the airline to confirm what it refunded to the platform. Keep the booking confirmation, the cancellation message and the refund summary. If it stays unresolved, you can raise it with the National Consumer Helpline (consumerhelpline.gov.in), on the DGCA's AirSewa portal for the airline's part, and through e-Daakhil for the consumer commission.
