If all seats of Bhopal Shatabdi get filled end to end in General and Tatkal quota then Its total revenue will be 1551030
and Operating cost is 60.12% of maximum revenue.
Is it good method?

When Gatimaan Base Fare is higher, Catering Charge is higher, how projection be based @ Shatabdi?? Electric & EOG Cost b stable for NZM-AGC..keeping it same for Taj, u gonna screw Taj's revenue performance!!
U shldnt estimate anything as bluff...just try to keep in mind: Its not proportional to Km, 70% isnt just Fuel cost..
& y I rubbished it out..cz u made like: Its running shorter distance & hence low cost...whch is untrue!! To estimate without any data/logic, is baseless & just a bluff!!

ok, my estimation is bluff, my data is bluff, my logic is bluff.
What is your estimation? What is your data? What is your logic?
If its not proportional to distance then why mostly trains have almost near cost/km?
If no one is estimating then i will have to estimate.
Operating
...
more...
cost of Taj Express will definitely be lower because Taj Express having non AC coaches which are lighter in weight compare to AC coaches and EOG also will consume less fuel. Unfortunately no non-ac train in that pic so i can not estimate operating cost of non AC trains.

Re# 1796053-84              
U havnt estimated any cost yet..didnt hav any answer for 16-18% diff in UP/DN Kalka/DBRG...just a dinner or lunch provision could add in 18% in cost, thn u easily could compute the overall catering impact!!
Further, Taj may come in smaller bracket (maybe 10-20000 lesser), but do this make much of impact, as still Just Electric/Fuel Cost will impact its return!! I made example of Taj, to nullify 70% input of cost for only energy!! M not estimating bt 70% & Kms direct ratio is incorrect,,yeah fuel charge proportional to Km run, makes sence (but its total cost not just fuel)!!
