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.

1. Better option for stay; family restaurant; shopping zones at railway stations.
2. Paid shuttle services exclusively between old, new, Hazrat Nizammuddin and Anand Vihar to & from these stations.

श्रीमान प्रधान सेवक !
भारतीय रेल की आय बढ़ाने को लेकर मेरा एक महत्वपूर्ण सुझाव यह है कि- जिस रूट पर ज्यादा भीड़भाड़ रहती है वहां का लोड कम करने हेतु डेमू मेमू जैसी 3-3 डिब्बों की ट्रेन चलाई जाये ! ताकि अन्य पैसेंजर एवं एक्सप्रेस ट्रेनों में भीड़ कम हो जाये !
साथ ही डेली नौकरी पेशा वालों के लिए ट्रेन में अलग कोच रखा जाये ! ये लोग रिजर्वेशन वाले पैसेंजर को परेशान करते हैं ! खासकर यूपी बिहार बंगाल महाराष्ट्र और दिल्ली में !

Right now for cashless transactions, commission will be paid for card and wallet providers. Why not create a separate wallet or card system or platform and all this commission lands into Railways. This card should allow purchases at other outlets. Or have a tie up with Rupay cards and provide some discount to customers and generate revenue for yourself. If ppl are using other cards and wallets ask these companies to provide some revenue for generating so many transactions for them.

In Tier1 and Tier2 cities which have traffic problems, see how suburban train usage can be maximized to generate more revenue. Use machines for cleaning the trains so that it can be faster and reduce manpower effort. Get bank ATMS in the railway stations to generate some rent. Give a mall like look to the major railway stations. Have a play area for kids in major station with hourly charges. Increase the charges for using lavatory with better upkeep.#NonFareRevenue, #IndianRailways, #Railways

#Railway can provide good quality food and beverages so that passengers need not have mindset of bringing their own. #Railway should provide proper representative so that common citizen can make use of those digital touchscreen devices in station.By providing proper environment for passengers #Railway can publish advertisement that it might reach the citizen only then i think that advertisement will reach the people.And Please make sure that toilet facilities in Trains are properly maintained.
