APSRTC Vice-Chairman and Managing Director NV Surendra Babu revealed that the ticket prices were hiked by Rs 4 for all the services except for Palle Velugu.

As per the release issued by the APSRTC, Vennela service fare will be rounded off to denominations of 10. Taking the new hike in consideration, the express service fare from Vijayawada to Eluru has been hiked to 70 from 66 and the new express fare from Vijayawada to Guntur is 40.
