How Lucknow Metro fares work
Lucknow Metro uses a distance-based fare system with 6 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 ₹10 and rise to a maximum of ₹60.
