The toll charges for commercial vehicles entering and exiting Mumbai will increase from October 1, with the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) revising rates across five entry points into the city. The hike has drawn opposition from transporters, who said the higher charges would add to their operating costs and could eventually increase freight rates and the prices paid by consumers.

Revised toll rates for commercial vehicles

Under the revised rates, mini buses and Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) will be charged Rs 90 per trip, up from the existing Rs 75. The toll for buses and trucks will increase to Rs 180 from Rs 150, while heavy motor vehicles will have to pay Rs 225 instead of Rs 190.
