I think we can safely say that the flyers are back on board, so there shouldn't be any reason not to have such aircraft operating due to the seats - or maybe IT isn't doing that well??

I doubt a good response to the low yield BOM-DEL route (which sees very agressive price wars) is an indicator that traffic is back, atleast the high yield one that would pay for the lease of the IT A321 (these contracts were done at the peak of the boom).
