Railways has given a shock just before the new year. Fares on many major trains are going to increase from 26th December. Especially if you are traveling in ‘Lucknow Mail’, If you travel by VIP trains like ‘Pushpak Express’ or ‘Shatabdi’, then this news is very important for you. Let us know by how much the ticket of your favorite train has become costlier now. What has changed for those going to Delhi? (Lucknow to Delhi Fare) The first choice of most people to go from Lucknow to New Delhi is ‘Lucknow Mail’. Now its fare has also become expensive. Lucknow Mail: First AC fare will now increase from Rs 1970 to Rs 1980. For second AC you will now have to pay Rs 1190 instead of Rs 1180 and for third AC you will have to pay Rs 855 instead of Rs 845. Sleeper class will also now cost Rs 340. Shatabdi Express: If you like to save time and go by Shatabdi, now go for chair car. You will have to pay Rs 1415 for the executive class and Rs 2175 for the executive class. The only relief is that the Delhi fare has increased by only Rs 10 to 15, which is not much. The Lucknow to Mumbai fare has the biggest impact on long distance journeys. The fare of ‘Pushpak Express’ from Lucknow to Mumbai has been increased by Rs 30. Pushpak Express: Now you will have to pay Rs 680 (earlier Rs 650) for its sleeper ticket. Third AC will now cost Rs 1725, Second AC Rs 2445 and First AC Rs 4105. Other cities are also not untouched, not just Delhi-Mumbai, if you are going from Palakhan to Chandigarh, it will cost around Rs 15 more. Same in Jammu. (Begumpura Express) You will have to pay about Rs 25 extra. Why the fare increase? Railways say that this is a minor increase (1 paise/km for Ordinary Class and 1 paise/km for Mail/Express 2 paise/km) has been made to meet the rising expenses. One good thing is that people who travel daily by making monthly pass (MST) or those traveling less than 215 km on ordinary ticket, their fare has not been increased.
