This is the first fare revision since 2017, when the last hike was carried out based on the recommendations of the Fourth Fare Fixation Committee (FFC). 

DMRC confirmed the revision in response to a commuter’s query on social media, stating that the increase is “nominal,” aimed at balancing operational costs and ensuring continued service improvements.

With revised fare, DMRC aims to ensure the financial sustainability of the network while continuing to provide safe, efficient, and reliable public transport to millions of daily passengers in the capital.

The revised rates are applicable from today, affecting lakhs of daily passengers in the capital.
