Although Indian Railways enjoy the highest captive eyeballs in a railway system internationally, it earns less than 5% of its revenues through non-tariff sources. Many of the world railway systems generate 10% to 20% of their revenues from non-tariff sources.

IR typically has focused on increasing revenues through tariff hikes. It wants to change this and challenge the conventional thinking by exploiting new sources of revenue so that every asset, tangible or non-tangible, gets optimally monetized

We invite ideas from citizens on increasing non fare revenue for Indian Railways.

Upgrade some coaches to double decker coaches in each train in each class like 2S, SL, AC 2, AC 3, CC, General etc. It will increase passenger seats and also revenue.

माननीय प्रधानमंत्री जी

विषय-गरीबो हेतु रेलवे सुविधा

महोदय जैसा कि आप जानते है कि हमारे देश का 85% गरीब रेलयात्रा करता है लेकिन उसके लिए सुविधा शून्य है।अत: हम आपसे कुछ सुविधा चाहता है जो निम्न है-
१- सामान्य बोगी कि संख्या बढ़े।
२- दिल्ली,मुम्बई,कोलकता,चेन्नई हेतु सामान्य बोगी वाली सुपरफास्ट/ऐक्सप्रेस ट्रेन चले।
३-भोजन की सुविधा कम दर पर हो।
४-सामान्य टिकट की दर कम करे।
५-स्टेशन मे शयन की सुविधा

आपसे निवेदन है कि इन तत्थों पर विचार किया जाये।

आपसे सहयोगी
हर्षित भदौरिया
धन्यवाद

I have suggestion to increase rail revenue. Rail can start their own courier supply chain for eCommerce.Fruits and vegetable and supply chain by rail parcel van or by EMU vendor. I can help rail to improve revenue without increasing passenger fair.

#IndianRailways; could you please look into the issue. I had reservation PNR 2324642392 with Journey date 24th Dec. On 21st Dec I checked cancelled train list and you had this train:14206 in this list cancelled for the date, therefore I had to change my plan and book other option to travel. Now you have suddenly changed the train as scheduled from cancelled, now what should I do with this ticket, would you refund it fully.

I had reservation on 24th DEC from train 14206. U labelled it as cancelled due to Fog. I had done another booking from UPSRTC, and now today I saw the Cancelled label changed, and train is on scheduled again. Who will bear the cost done in other reservations due to ur volatile decision. If I do cancel the 24th DEC ticket, would you refund my full money. So this an idea to loot common man and enrich the railway system.

Stop parcel booking through DALALS
I m a pharma mfgr in mumbai, send goods all over India by transport. In railway,every one books by DALALS(not direct).
-DALAL charges 5times(2500 instead of 500)
-I lost 3 consignment(DALAL changed mob no.)
-DALAL changes mob no.,keeps switch off, rarely picks
-Not sending goods to the real destination. (i book goods to X but they sent to Y & my party took goods to X by bus but X is d earlier station of Y)
