Formula Used
The fare is calculated using the following formula:
Total Fare = (Base Fare + (Distance × Rate per km)) + Additional Charges
Where:
- Base Fare - Initial charge for the ride (₹30 for standard, ₹40 for premium)
- Distance - The distance traveled in kilometers
- Rate per km - Cost per kilometer (₹15 for standard, ₹20 for premium)
- Additional Charges - Night surcharge (₹10 for night rides)
This formula provides a basic estimate. Actual fares may vary based on traffic, waiting time, and other factors.
Assumptions
Our calculator makes the following assumptions:
- Standard auto rickshaws have a base fare of ₹30 and charge ₹15 per km.
- Premium auto rickshaws have a base fare of ₹40 and charge ₹20 per km.
- A night surcharge of ₹10 applies to rides between 10 PM and 6 AM.
- Toll charges and parking fees are not included in the estimate.
Note: These rates are approximate and may vary based on the specific auto rickshaw service and current conditions in Ahmedabad.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the fare for a 5 km ride with a standard auto rickshaw during the day.
Total Fare = (₹30 + (5 × ₹15)) + ₹0 = ₹30 + ₹75 = ₹105
For the same distance at night:
Total Fare = (₹30 + (5 × ₹15)) + ₹10 = ₹30 + ₹75 + ₹10 = ₹115
This example shows how the night surcharge affects the total fare.
