Garib Rath (Chennai to Vijayawada): 560
Tamilnadu Express 3E: 710
Tamilnadu Express 3A: 765.

Only 55 rupees difference between 3E and 3A of Tamil Nadu Express and 150 rupees difference between Garib Rath and 3E of Tamil Nadu Express.

Why it has huge fare difference between 3E and Garib Rath fare?

Equivalent to GR? They are going to merge 3E with 3A mate, no question of reducing fare when both are gonna be called 3A only.
