Navratri Vaishno Devi — 11–20 Oct, Dussehra 20 Oct — Katra cabs at fixed fares — Book Navratri cab
The cab fare and the toll, added together, plus the three charges that sit on top — named honestly rather than estimated into a round number.
Short answer
A Delhi to Meerut trip is ₹2,650 all in for a sedan: ₹2,530 cab fare for the 70 km plus ₹120 in toll across 1 plaza. The fare covers the vehicle, fuel, the driver and GST. Three charges sit on top and are billed at actual: parking, the state entry levy, and the driver night allowance if the trip stays overnight.
Parking, state entry and the driver night allowance are charged at actual and are not in the figure above — we would rather give you a smaller number you can check than a rounder one you cannot. Ask and we will estimate all three for your dates.
These two are exact. The fare is the published rate card applied to 70 km; the toll is the 1 plaza on this corridor.
| Vehicle | Per km | Cab fare | Toll | Fare + toll |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sedan (Swift Dzire or similar) | ₹11 | ₹2,530 | ₹120 | ₹2,650 |
| SUV / Ertiga | ₹15 | ₹2,950 | ₹195 | ₹3,145 |
| Innova Crysta | ₹18 | ₹3,340 | ₹195 | ₹3,535 |
| Tempo Traveller, 12-seater | ₹23 | ₹3,490 | ₹195 | ₹3,685 |
The cab fare includes the vehicle, fuel, the driver and GST. Sedan toll is the car rate; the other three use the SUV rate, which is how the plazas class them.
Each of these is real and charged at actual. We name them rather than estimating them into the headline, because a figure you cannot check is worth less than a line you can ask about.
This route runs from Delhi into Uttar Pradesh, so a state entry levy applies. It is set by the state government, collected at or near the border, and charged at actual. Some routes cross an intermediate state as well — ask us for the full count on your itinerary.
A fixed amount per night the driver is away from base, covering his food and bed. On a same-day return it does not apply at all, however late the car gets in. On an overnight trip it applies once. It goes to the driver rather than to us, which is why it is itemised.
Monument, hotel and airport parking, paid where it is charged and billed at actual. It is the smallest of the three on almost every corridor, and the one that varies most with what you actually do at the far end.
On request we will estimate all three for your specific itinerary alongside the fare, so the whole figure is known before you travel. What we will not do is fold them into a per-kilometre rate.
The fuel for 70 km one way, for comparison. Note what it leaves out: the car, the wear, the parking, and the driving.
Self-drive fuel plus toll looks cheaper than a chauffeur-driven fare and it is not the same product. A rental, the deposit, the wear and the hours at the wheel are all on the other side of that comparison.

Tell us the dates and the vehicle and we will put a number on the state entry, the night allowance and the parking alongside the fare, so nothing is a surprise at the end.
