The train is taking 6 hours to complete 96 kms journey. On what basis are they charging "Superfast Charge" for this train? Is this a technique just to bump up pricing for this train?

They could have instead added a new category "Superslow Charges" and charged the same amount. Its the cost to be paid by passengers for making the train go slow and spending more time in journey.
These are fully air-conditioned coaches also. And operating an A/C coach with only 15 passengers per coach is very costly. That's why they have to charge higher fares to break even.
Again, these trains are not for fast transport to Simla. If people want to get to Simla quickly, road transport is much faster than any train. These trains are exclusively for people who want to experience the train journey through the hills and don't care about journey time. They are for tourists, not for people traveling on serious work.

Well explained circar!! Cannot compare tourist trains with normal train fare our fares are highly subsidized and if we take the coach cost cost of maintainance of track and salaries of the personnel manning the section even ACC and 3 AC fares cannot be returned.
Hey man!
If it was the only train on the route, than we should rise our objections. If anyone has problem with this train he can travel by other available trains.
If you need some extra, you should invest first. If you want to experience vistadom coaches journey in this valley, you have to pay otherwise travel in other trains.

I dont have issues in paying money for premium service. Just that they need to classify charges into logical category.
