1 thing here will misguide all. In the last statement it is said Senior Citizen Male enjoys 40% and Senior Citizen Female enjoys 50% concession on the total fare. The word 'total fare' is very much incorrect as the concession is on the base fare. Total fare includes all types of charges Viz. Catering/SF/Reservation etc which are charged in full from Senior Citizens too. So it should be Base Fare in place of Total Fare.
