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.

there can be many ways of collecting revenue for railways...
first of all...
railway may charge the person for disturbing the cleanse of the stations or train...it will help in collecting more revenue and will keep station and train clean to...but it will be strict action to be taken...but will have good effect technology i.e cctv camras can be used for this work..
on other hand railway can use commercials or it may give permission to corporates to run there own trains...

Increase in revenue of Railways can be achieved by non-tariff aspects also,
1) Revenue through Call for advertising of public sector/private sector / MNC's on Railway Platforms and trains
2) Calculate the book value of high fuel consuming / Maintenance engines and bogies, recondition and sell it to less developed countries
3) Attach more bogies to trains
4) Electrify the railway lines and slowly get rid of diesel engines
5) Calculate revenue generated per staff person and reallocate them

Sir,
My submission is please make commercial space above the railway tracks and platforms i.e. construct a floor over platforms in major railway stations like NEW DELHI, MUMBAI, CHENNAI same as in METRO RAIL, so that passengers can shop / view cinema/ other entertainment in the station itself who has time to wait. So that Indian railways can collect huge revenue, with this the same/other station may be maintained in hygienic.

hi sir. last year 822cr passenger used indian railway
2-start selling merchandise like we get in on-flights retails. out of 800 cr passengers even if 1% of of them buy goods worth ₹100 we make ₹800cr revenue & goods should be only from the distress industries like handloom, weavers, khadi industry. This will give direct market exposure to 800cr buyer every year.
2-Give as much as space to indian origin fast food take aways
payment for these goods should be allowed only through digital mode
