On Sunday, the Indian Railways said their much spoken about surge pricing initiative has seen a positive response over the last two days.
The Railways claimed that approximately 50,000 tickets were booked at a higher fare in Rajdhani, Shatabdi and Dumont trains since the initiative began on 9 September.
The results of September 9 and 10 are very encouraging. We have got good support from our passengers and think we will continue to get a similar response in the coming days as well.Mohammad Jamshed, Railway Board Member (Traffic)
