Why use Auto & Cab Fare Estimator

  • All 4 in one place

    Chennai, Delhi, Jaipur and the rest sit behind one picker, so switching city takes a tap instead of a new search.

  • Built for each option

    Every city keeps its own rules, numbers and defaults rather than one generic template.

  • Shareable view

    The link remembers the city you picked, so a bookmark or a shared link opens straight on it.

Common use cases

  • Check whether the ₹250 an auto driver is asking for a 7 km run from Egmore to Adyar is anywhere near the meter.
  • Check whether the ₹250 an auto driver is asking for a 9 km run from Connaught Place to Lajpat Nagar is anywhere near the notified meter.
  • Price the Hawa Mahal to Amber Fort run with a two-hour halt and the return leg before agreeing a lump sum with a driver.
  • Check whether the fare an auto driver quotes for the 8 km run from Nagpur Junction to the airport matches the meter card.

Frequently asked questions

Which city options does this tool cover?

4: Chennai, Delhi, Jaipur, Nagpur. Pick one at the top of the tool; the page link updates (for example ?v=chennai) so you can bookmark or share that exact view.

What is the auto fare per km in Chennai?

₹12 per kilometre after the first 1.8 km, which is covered by the ₹25 minimum fare. So a 5 km trip meters at ₹25 + (3.2 × ₹12) = ₹63.40, before any waiting or night charge.

What is the auto fare per km in Delhi?

₹9.50 per kilometre after the first 1.5 km, which the ₹25 meter-down charge covers. A 5 km trip therefore meters at ₹25 + (3.5 × ₹9.50) = ₹58.25 before any waiting, luggage or night charge.

Do autos in Jaipur use the meter?

In practice, rarely. Most Jaipur autos quote a lump sum before the trip rather than running a meter, which is why the fare is agreed in advance and why an independent per-kilometre estimate is useful before you start haggling. Always settle the number before you get in, not at the destination.

What is the night charge for autos in Nagpur?

25% above the metered fare, and in Maharashtra the window runs from midnight to 5 am — not from 11 pm as it does in Delhi. A trip that meters ₹100 becomes ₹125 inside that window, and the surcharge applies to the meter reading only, not to tolls or parking paid separately.
