TSRTC Bus Pass – To offset its daily losses, the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) recently raised the cost of passenger tickets and bus passes with the addition of a “diesel cess,” but even that hasn’t made much of a difference. The overall losses or daily income it produces are still a long way from enabling it to make a profit.

TSRTC Bus Pass 2024
In Telangana, the TSRTC operates 9,384 corporate buses and 2,909 rented buses. In total, it transports roughly 42 lakh individuals daily between the state and other states. The company typically earns roughly Rs 13 crore each day from the sale of tickets and bus passes. However, the TSRTC will ultimately lose money because maintenance will cost Rs 18 crores.
Every day, the TSRTC endures losses, which recently have only gotten worse in line with growing diesel prices. “Rs 4-4.5 crores are lost on a daily basis. The RTC suffered losses totaling Rs 2,143 crores in 2024–2024. With the diesel cess, there has been an increase in revenue of roughly Rs 50 lakhs.
