Re: Metro Railway Kolkata Smart Card

I have knowledge about the Metro Railway Kolkata Smart Card rules. So here I am providing you information about it, as you want.

RULES FOR SMART CARD;
Smart Cards are sold at all Kolkata Metro stations.
The first time user will have to purchase the smart card by paying Rs.100/ 200/ 300/ 500 & 1000 and later on get the pass value recharged for any amount of Rs.100/ 200/ 300/ 500 & 1000, up to maximum card balance of Rs.5000/-.

A 10% bonus on flat rate is given on issuing new smart card (minus SD) and further on recharging of smart card.

Validity of such card is one year from the date of purchase or date of “add value”. In case the smart card is topped up within validity period, the balance amount remaining on the card is carried forward.

A passenger is allowed to enter through the entry gate only with a minimum balance of Rs.25/-(the maximum chargeable fare).

In case a patron does not flash his smart card at the exit and makes an improper exit, the card is locked.

The booking counter deducts the maximum chargeable fare Rs.25/- from the smart card when the same is presented in the next visit and the card is unlocked.

When a passenger tries to exit with a card without proper recorded entry in it, the passenger is not deemed to be travelling without ticket.

Such a mismatch is penalized by deducting Rs.25/- from the smart card.

Lost card is not replaced under any circumstances.

RULES FOR STUDENT SMART CARD;
Student smart card is sold only at the booking counters of selected stations of Kolkata Metro.

This card is issued in favour of 2 fixed stations.

Concession of 60% of the chargeable fare is granted to students attending School / Madrasas / Vocational Institutions up to classes academically equivalent to Class – XII. Any other discounts on the basis of add value is not applicable.

The first time user is to pay one time security deposit of Rs.60/- for purchasing the student smart card and get the pass value loaded for 40 or 80 Rides.

Validity of student smart card is 30 days and 90 days according to value loaded for 40 rides and 80 rides respectively.

When this card is recharged before the validity period the balance rides, if any, are carried forwarded.

After the validity is over, the same card again can be recharged as per requirement but balance rides, if any, are not carried forward.


When a student makes an improper exit without flashing his card on the gate, the card gets locked.

One ride is deducted when the card is presented to the booking counter in the next visit and simultaneously the card gets unlocked.

When a student tries to exit with a card without proper entry recorded in it, the student is deemed to be travelling without ticket.

He/She is liable to pay penalty of Rs.250/- in addition to maximum fare in cash chargeable at that exit point.
