MAXIMUM TOP UP (RECHARGE) LIMIT OF SMART CARD TO BE INCREASED TO Rs. 2000/- FROM TOMORROW, WILL REMAIN EFFECTIVE TILL 31st DECEMBER 2016
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has decided to increase the maximum top up limit of its Smart Card by Rs. 1000/- to Rs. 2000/- from tomorrow i.e, 11th December 2016. The increased top up limit will remain effective till 31st December 2016 only.
The decision to increase the maximum top up limit has been taken with a view to facilitate the commuters who might come with new currency notes of Rs. 2000/- to top up their smart cards. With the present maximum top up ceiling of Rs. 1000/- , it would have created problem in the availability of adequate currency notes for passengers and currency to be returned to such passengers, specially in view of shortage of new Rs 500 currency notes.
