The Indian Railways is considering a modest increase in train fares and is likely to hike the price from July 1, 2025, according to the officials.

The proposed changes include a 1 paisa per kilometre rise for non-AC classes on Mail/Express trains and a 2 paise per kilometre hike for all AC classes, sources said.

In a relief to regular commuters, fares for suburban trains and monthly season tickets are expected to remain unchanged.
