An Indigo Airbus A321-200N, registration VT-NOE performing flight 6E-6115 from Delhi to Chennai (India), was enroute at FL350 about 80nm north of Hyderabad (India) when the crew decided to divert to Hyderabad after a passenger's powerbank stored in the overhead locker had caught fire. Cabin crew used portable fire extinguishers to control the fire and secure the device. The aircraft landed on Hyderabad's runway 09R without further incident about 19 minutes later and taxied to the apron.

The aircraft is still on the ground in Hyderabad about 26 hours after landing.
