The matter is likely to be taken up by the cabinet soon. According to sources, the meter-down fare for autos may go up to Rs 15 from the existing Rs 10 and for taxis it may go up to Rs 20 from Rs 15.
A senior official said that there are two options in each case. For autos it can be Rs 8 or Rs 10 while for taxis it may be Rs 13 or Rs 15. The final call on what goes to the cabinet will have to be taken by the transport minister. Or maybe both options will be tabled and the cabinet will decide.
At present, autos charge Rs 4.50 for every additional km beyond the first and taxis charge Rs 8.50.
The auto and taxi unions have been demanding for a fare hike ever since the chief minister’s statement in the Assembly about the phasing out of autos.
