The fare revision applies to the entire 96.10-kilometre Namma Metro network and covers all ten fare zones.<\/p>\n
\nThe fare revision has been carried out in line with the recommendations of the First Fare Fixation Committee (FFC), which was formed under the Metro Railways (Operation and Maintenance) Act, 2002.
Under the new system, fares will be revised in small amounts every year, rather than being increased heavily after several years.<\/p>\n
According to BMRCL,<\/a> the step to increase the fare is to match inflation and the growing cost of running and maintaining the metro, while keeping travel affordable.<\/p>\n Revised metro fares<\/strong><\/p>\n For short trips, fares in the F1 zone (0 to 2 km) will increase from \u20b9 10 to \u20b9 11.
