Despite the numerous types of trains and classes, the fare system is quite logical.
Shatabdi, Rajdhani, Jan Shatabdi and Garib Rath trains have fixed point-to-point fares. The fare one-way may be slightly more or less than the reverse-fare, due to different catering charges.
Express and mail trains have standardized fares based on the distance travelled.
Super-fast trains are charged the same base fare as other mail/express trains, but a super-fast surcharge is added to it.
Fast-passenger trains as well as Passenger trains are extremely cheap.
