Important Pune Metro Ticketing Guidelines: Avoid Penalties with New Travel Rules
Pune Metro has issued important instructions regarding tickets and travel timings for passengers. Adhering to these rules is essential to avoid penalties.
Passengers must complete their journey within 90 minutes from the time of ticket purchase to exiting the station. Exceeding this limit will attract an overstay penalty of ₹10 per hour, up to a maximum of ₹50.
Travel without a valid ticket will result in a fine of ₹85. Similarly, any misuse of the AFC (Automatic Fare Collection) gates, such as false entry or exit attempts, will also lead to a penalty of ₹85.
