How the Salem to Vellore fare is worked out
Fare = billable km × the car’s per-km rate + driver bata. For a Sedan on this route that is 210 km × ₹15 = ₹3,150, plus ₹400 bata = ₹3,550. In an Innova it is 210 km × ₹21 = ₹4,410, plus ₹500 bata = ₹4,910. Extra stops or detours use the same per-km rate, and nothing is added for the driver’s return journey on a one way drop.
