Although Indian Railways enjoy the highest captive eyeballs in a railway system internationally, it earns less than 5% of its revenues through non-tariff sources. Many of the world railway systems generate 10% to 20% of their revenues from non-tariff sources.

IR typically has focused on increasing revenues through tariff hikes. It wants to change this and challenge the conventional thinking by exploiting new sources of revenue so that every asset, tangible or non-tangible, gets optimally monetized

We invite ideas from citizens on increasing non fare revenue for Indian Railways.

Dear sir, is it not possible to issue a notification to station managers to make sure that the vendors in railway station are accepting digital payments. It would save a lot of hassel during travel. #IndianRailways #Railways #MyGov

undertake large scale water harvesting - use this water to clean tracks / bogies. water bills costs will reduce. cleanliness will bring more people.

Mumbai locals have on-board public announcement systems, such should be installed on other trains and advertisements (voice / radio) / public messages played during day time.

Mobile & Aadhar enabled ticketing for commuters & Aadhar based platform ticketing can cut short cost & also restrict unauthorized people roaming,affecting security & causing threats !

R/Sir, Pl allow all advertising companies to display their products on each compartments by painting for 6months/one year & thus enabling travelers & local viewers to watch & same may be applicable for Govt projects/advertisements to reach to masses as strong railway network is capable of reaching last mile ! Companies in turn will maintain the cleanliness of the compartments by deputing local agencies,enabling jobs.Radio channels to come forward & advertise Govt policies,other products !

Am proposing only zero cost implementation ideas which might increase the safety, security and pleseant experience of train travels. 1. Like in airport only the passengers should be allowed into the platform. Profit from platform ticket would be a loss. But security cost will decrease. 2. Luggage weight control system. More the load beyond presribed allowance charge the passengers. This will result is best space utilization and controlling rude passengers while increasing the profit.
