Ngp-Pune Vande Bharat Oversubscribed, Waiting List Crosses 150 for Sunday Journey
Nagpur: The newly launched Vande Bharat Express, connecting Nagpur and Pune, has turned into a runaway success within days of its introduction, with waiting lists already exceeding 150 for Sunday. A TOI check of the booking status revealed that the Nagpur–Pune Vande Bharat Express had a staggering waiting list of 153 passengers in chair car (CC) class by Saturday evening, while Tuesday's service already had 33 people on the waitlist. Executive chair car (ECC) tickets also showed a waiting list. The service does not operate on Mondays. The ECC seat costs around ₹3,815—higher than even many AC first-tier fares in sleeper trains on the route. The overwhelming response has even outshone older Vande Bharat services from Nagpur. The Nagpur–Secunderabad Vande Bharat Express had a waiting list of 61 for Sunday and 19 for Monday, while the Nagpur–Bilaspur Vande Bharat Express, which offers greater seating capacity than the Nagpur–Pune train, had no waiting list at all. Seat availability stood at 401 and 750 in chair cars for Sunday and Monday, respectively. The earnings, too, reflect this surge in popularity. In just the first two days of operation, the Nagpur–Pune Vande Bharat clocked an impressive revenue of ₹18.60 lakh, with occupancy levels crossing 134% when accounting for waiting list bookings. A railway official confirmed that the train has been running at near-full capacity since its launch and is expected to continue doing so during the upcoming festive season. Passenger accounts also highlight the train's significance during peak travel days. "Many people came for Rakhi and stayed back because of the Independence Day long weekend. The Vande Bharat is proving to be a boon in this situation. In the coming festive season, it will play an important role for travellers," said Aniket Pawar, a techie from Wardha currently working in Pune.
