However, timings can vary slightly between lines and stations. The Aerocity Metro Line, for instance, starts earlier and runs later. Just as the timings vary depending on the station, the fares depend on the distance travelled. You can use a smart card for economical travel; the minimum fare is typically Rs. 10, while the maximum varies depending on the distance. You can get a 10% discount for using the metro card and a 10% discount during off-peak hours and weekends. Plus, children under 3 can travel for free. Besides the metro card, you can buy tokens at the station using the automated ticket machines at every station.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/delhi-metro-map\/\">Delhi Metro Map: Where To Check &amp; Essential Tips<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delhi_Metro_Lines_A_Guide_to_DMRC_Route\"><\/span><b>Delhi Metro Lines: A Guide to DMRC Route<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a testament to the rapid urbanisation and infrastructure development, the Delhi Metro route map ensures efficient and affordable transportation.
