Bangalore's auto rickshaws are a common mode of transportation, but calculating fares can be confusing due to varying rates and distance measurements. This auto fare calculator simplifies the process by providing accurate estimates based on standard Bangalore auto rates.
How to Use This Calculator
Using the auto fare calculator is simple:
- Enter the distance of your trip in kilometers
- Select the type of auto (standard or premium)
- Click "Calculate Fare" to get your estimate
- Review the result and any additional charges
The calculator provides an estimate based on standard Bangalore auto rates. For more accurate pricing, you may want to confirm with your specific auto service provider.
Formula Used
The auto fare is calculated using the following formula:
Total Fare = Base Fare + (Distance × Rate per KM)
Where:
- Base Fare is the initial charge for the first few kilometers
- Distance is the total kilometers traveled
- Rate per KM is the cost per kilometer after the base distance
The exact values for base fare and rate per kilometer may vary slightly depending on the auto service provider and time of day.
Worked Examples
Example 1: Standard Auto, 5 KM Trip
For a standard auto with a base fare of ₹50 and a rate of ₹15 per kilometer:
Total Fare = ₹50 + (5 × ₹15) = ₹50 + ₹75 = ₹125
Example 2: Premium Auto, 10 KM Trip
For a premium auto with a base fare of ₹70 and a rate of ₹20 per kilometer:
Total Fare = ₹70 + (10 × ₹20) = ₹70 + ₹200 = ₹270
These examples show how the calculator applies the formula to different scenarios. The actual fare may vary slightly based on the specific auto service provider and current rates.

- Base fare for the first few kilometers
