Even in 2024 nobody will be pay as much as asked by the study. If we take in 5% annual inflation on prices of 3A fare it should come to no more than Rs. 1200. But then I agree it is a premium service and fare need me close to 2A fare around Rs. 1700 - 1800.

As per current GDP of India and per capita income...The High speed rail is not feasible at present but it may work 20-30 years later.

sir there are 15-20 daily direct flights between Mumbai-ADI, airfare starts from 2000-2500 during off season. If you want to book last minute ticket during peak season, you will get airfare of around 4000-6000. Flight takes approx 1 hr, plus early arrival at airport and going back from airport will add 2 more hours in your travel time. New bullet train will take 2 hrs flat time..
If airlines can offer 2500-3000 daily seats in this sector, which means there is huge demand in this sector and passengers don't mind paying little high to save their time.. I dont understand, why do you think that a passenger who can afford airline ticket or 1st class/ EC shatabdi ticket, will not migrate to
...
more...
Bullet train at Rs. 2800 in this sector??

Re# 1546524-8              
because...In India travel by train is not equal to travel by air....change in thinking will take some time...I am not saying that people will not travel presently, but after 20-30 years they will be mentally prepared (and huge chance of success as well). In China...HSR is much successful in many routes.
