Price of Ticket


For the convenience of customers, Delhi Metro commuters have three choices for ticket purchase. The RFID tokens are valid only for a single journey on the day of purchase and the value depends on the distance travelled, with fares for a single journey ranging from Indian Rupee symbol.svg8 (US$0.18) to Indian Rupee symbol.svg30 (US$0.67). Fares are calculated based on the origin and destination stations using a fare chart. A common ticketing facility for commuters travelling on Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) buses and the Metro will be introduced in 2011. Travel cards are available for longer durations and are most convenient for frequent commuters. They are valid for one year from the date of purchase or the date of last recharge, and are available in denominations of Indian Rupee symbol.svg50 (US$1.12)to Indian Rupee symbol.svg800 (US$17.8). A 10% discount is given on all travel made on it. A deposit of Indian Rupee symbol.svg50 (US$1.12)needs to be made to buy a new card. Tourist cards can be used for unlimited travel on the Delhi Metro network over short periods of time. There are two kinds of tourist cards valid for one and three days respectively. The cost of a one-day card is Indian Rupee symbol.svg100 (US$2.2) and that of a three-day card is Indian Rupee symbol.svg250 (US$5.6), besides a refundable deposit of Indian Rupee symbol.svg50 (US$1.12) that must be paid at the time of purchasing the card.
