The Tamil Nadu Omni Bus Owners Association has decided to increase fares for long distance bus travel by 10 to 20 per cent. The new fares will be applicable from September 10.
Air-conditioned bus fares would have a price rise of 20 per cent while the non-ac category will have fares hiked by 10 to 12 per cent.
A Afzal, president of the association, said, " The price of diesel has increased by Rs 10-12 per litre in the past 18 months, highway toll charges have gone up, the price of automobile spares and tyres have gone up by 30 per cent, insurance premiums are higher. We had no other option but to increase the fares."
