How the Madurai to Kanyakumari fare is worked out
Fare = billable km × the car’s per-km rate + driver bata. For a Sedan on this route that is 240 km × ₹15 = ₹3,600, plus ₹400 bata = ₹4,000. In an Innova it is 240 km × ₹21 = ₹5,040, plus ₹500 bata = ₹5,540. The estimate you see in the booking form is the same figure the driver works from, so there is no surprise at the drop.
