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.

Sir, we can provide 24 hour electricity by the research on the thermo voltaic effect taking energy from the environment and air .We can also provide water for drinking and cleaning purpose by the pipe line by the Desalination of water by external electric field. But first deploy able persons in PRISM and other institutions who can understand and evaluate the innovative ideas and concept or railways directly take interest in these projects. We can solve the problem of plastic pollution..

Organic farming with Edible Landscaping plants + Biofuel plants in open spaces and along rail tracks on all the rail track side lands, can be a good solution. Sale of Organic fruits and vegetables on the platforms will be very useful. Dr.Desai Pune. #9423572539 email:

My suggestions are: *Install TV's and google maps with satellite connection in front of passenger seats on payment basis. * Run railway owned buses in metro cities for 1st class passengers with fee. * Remove bottle-necks in operations and at purchasing,selling of services. * Install centrally tendering systems with robotic technology. * Follow every day low pricing mechanisms for balance seats *

Sir actually if solar energy can be utiised for indian railways then it will to some extent save electricity requirement of railways. if roof top of passenger trains are eqipped with solar panels then solar energy can be transformed into electric energy thus saving to some extent requirement of electricity.
