MSRTC Launches 15% Fare Discount For Long-Distance Travelers From July 1
The Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) has rolled out a new fare discount scheme effective from July 1, 2025, offering a 15% reduction on advance ticket bookings for passengers traveling distances exceeding 150 km. This initiative aims to make long-distance travel more economical and encourage early reservations.
Who Can Avail the Discount?
Passengers purchasing full-fare tickets (i.e., those not availing any concessions) are eligible for the 15% discount, provided the journey is longer than 150 km. Concession ticket holders are not included under this offer.

When and Where is It Valid?
The discount will be available year-round, excluding peak travel periods such as Diwali and summer vacations. It applies across all MSRTC buses, including premium services like the e-Shivneri buses operating between Mumbai and Pune.
How to Book?
- Passengers can access the discount through multiple booking channels:
- MSRTC bus depots and reservation counters
- Official MSRTC website: public.msrtcors.com
- MSRTC mobile app for Android and iOS
Festival Benefit:
Travelers planning trips during religious events like Ashadhi Ekadashi (to Pandharpur) and Ganesh festival (to Konkan) can also take advantage of the offer, provided they book in advance and meet the eligibility criteria.
Why This Initiative?
Announced on MSRTC's 77th Foundation Day by Maharashtra Transport Minister and MSRTC Chairman Pratap Sarnaik, the discount aims to:
- Promote early bookings
- Improve fleet and route planning
- Enhance travel convenience and affordability
In short, this move is expected to benefit thousands of long-distance commuters by offering a meaningful discount and making advance planning more attractive.
