Very recently Tamil Nadu Omni Bus Owners Association have hiked their fare between 10% and 25%. As per this, the ticket fare between Chennai and Coimbatore will be Rs 800 for ordinary buses and Rs 1,100 for AC buses. But last Wednesday, Rs 1500 for non–ac and Rs 2000 for ac buses were collected.
 
It is also said that bus operators from other parts of the State have also picking up passengers with exorbitant fare to Chennai.
