New Delhi, June 8: SpiceJet extended its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) scheme to mid to senior level employees and critical resource staff in recognition of their contribution to the Company in the last three years of the COVID-19 crisis. SpiceJet already has an ESOP scheme in place for its top management.
