My application uses the below load balancer creates through HELM Release which was an dependent application
https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-alb-ingress-controller

So when we deploy the application through helm it internally creates an loadbalancer.

When I destroy the application it was not able to cleanup the newly created loadbalancer and hence the internet gateway was not able to destroy and hence the VPC also was not able to destroy

Error: Error waiting for internet gateway (igw-0c37628c5687d2d50) to detach: timeout while waiting for state to become 'detached' (last state: 'detaching', timeout: 15m0s)
