TSRTC bus fares to increase
Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) will again hike bus fares from Saturday, as it announced on Friday that it will charge a diesel cess of Rs 2 to Rs 5. Following the increase in diesel prices, TSRTC Chairman Bajireddy Goverdhan said the company had no choice but to level its cess.
There is a diesel cess of Rs 2 for each passenger for Pallevelugu and City ordinary services and Rs 5 for each passenger for Express, Deluxe, Super Luxury, City Metro Express and Deluxe, and all AC services.
In Pallevelugu and City Ordinary services, the minimum fare will continue to be Rs 10 so that the common man and short distance passengers are not burdened, the TSRTC Chairman said. Govardhan and TSRTC Managing Director V C Sajjanar appealed to the public to cooperate and extend patronage.
The buses operated by the TSRTC consume around 6 lakh litres of HSD (High Speed Diesel) Oil daily for their operations to serve lakhs of passengers. Recent price increases of HSD oil have been abnormal, they said, rising by Rs 35 from December 2021 prices.
