After successful run of premium express (with exorbitant fates) between Delhi & Mumbai, where most of the passengers are company officials and business travellers, the concept was hurriedly implemented pan India including smaller cities. Delhi & Mumbai are the largest & richest cities in India. Except few metro cities, people in general does not have that kind of money.

As per budget 2016 Uday DD trains are expected to run on similar concept.
