How Bengaluru Metro fares work
Bengaluru Metro uses a distance-based fare system with 10 slabs. The price of your trip depends on how far you travel between your boarding and alighting stations, not on the number of interchanges. Single-journey tokens and QR tickets cost a little more than travelling with a stored-value smart card, and several networks offer an additional discount when you travel during off-peak hours. Fares start at ₹11 and rise to a maximum of ₹95.
