The Gaya-Howrah Vande Bharat Express, which will start operating on September 15th, is being considered a more premium train than the Rajdhani Express by the Indian Railways. Despite the dynamic fare system in place for Rajdhani Express, the fare for the Vande Bharat Express from Dhanbad to Howrah is higher. For...

instance, the executive class fare for the Vande Bharat is ₹1735 while the first AC fare for Rajdhani is ₹1595. Similarly, the chair car fare for the Vande Bharat is ₹990 while the third AC fare for Rajdhani is ₹860. The Vande Bharat also costs more than the Shatabdi and Duronto Expresses. The Gaya-Howrah Vande Bharat is also costlier than the Varanasi-New Delhi Vande Bharat, with fares being almost double for similar distances. However, the Vande Bharat is expected to be the fastest train between Dhanbad and Howrah, completing the journey in 3 hours and 3 minutes, compared to 3 hours 17 minutes for the Howrah Rajdhani, 3 hours 47 minutes for the Sealdah Rajdhani, and 3 hours 50 minutes for the Shatabdi Express.

Gaya-Howrah Vande Bharat Express, jo 15 September se chalu hone wali hai, ko Indian Railways Rajdhani Express se bhi zyada premium train maan raha hai.

Lekin, Vande Bharat, Dhanbad aur Howrah ke beech sabse tez train hone ki ummid hai, jo 3 hours 3 minutes mein yaatra poori karegi, jabki Howrah Rajdhani ko 3 hours 17 minutes, Sealdah Rajdhani ko 3 hours 47 minutes, aur Shatabdi Express ko 3 hours 50 minutes lagte hain.
