They brought this upon themselves.
Even now, where multiple new lines are being commissioned, the MPS for said lines is always 110 as testing is done at 120-125 kmph (oscillation trials ate always carried out at 10% greater speed than rated)
Until railways doesn't increase speed they won't cut down on losses as the higher paying seement gravitates either towards planes or AC buses, both of which offer higher speeds.

If you read the entire article, it says that at the moment 75% of express trains, the main revenue generator for IR are on track, while revenue loss is 71% overall. The trains are run with somewhat higher fare and no concessions, yet this is the state.
This isn't just the loss from lower number of trains!
