The flight, operated with an Airbus A320neo, made an emergency landing at 9.52 pm, the source said.
The number of people on board could not be immediately known.
“Full emergency declared for IndiGo flight 6E-6271, operating on Delhi-Goa route after it was diverted to Mumbai due to one engine failure,” the source said.
