Good News for Metro commuters!!
Paper QR based multiple tickets will be issued in a single transaction by Metro Railway, Kolkata from tomorrow, i.e. 28.02.2025 onwards in all lines except Purple Line. Maximum 7 paper based QR tickets can be purchased on a single transaction by paying the requisite fare through cash or UPI mode of payment at the booking counters by any commuter. At present, only one single paper based QR ticket can be purchased at a time by any commuter.
It will help in reducing the queue length and waiting time for ticketing at the counters.
During the last month, Metro Railway has set a milestone by crossing its digital transaction more than 30% in the month. Passengers are requested to adopt digital transactions and also buy tickets online before reaching the Metro station to avoid rush due to long queues at booking counters particularly during the peak hours.
