Mumbaikars will have to shell out more for their daily commute on suburban trains from January 1.

Train passengers in Mumbai will have to pay Rs 2 to Rs 4 more for their daily journey as the Railways have decided to increase the surcharge on suburban train services in the metropolitan due. The earning from surcharge will help railways to repay the loan taken for Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP), which is involved in the upgradation of the rail network in Mumbai.
