165.3 km and roughly 3 hours — that's what the Jalandhar to Chandigarh drive looks like in numbers. Most of the route uses NH44 (GT Road, Jalandhar section). Sairgah's sedan fare for the trip starts at ₹3,417; SUVs and Tempo Travellers are listed further down if you need the space.
The Jalandhar to Chandigarh cab ride covers approximately 165 km and usually takes about 3 hours via NH44 (GT Road, Jalandhar section). The fare is fixed when you book, no surge pricing.

Car options for the Jalandhar–Chandigarh run
A sedan (Dzire, Amaze, Etios — comfortable for four adults) is the default choice and the cheapest, starting at ₹3,417. Step up to an SUV like an Innova or Ertiga if you've got six people or a lot of bags, or a Tempo Traveller (12–17 seats) for bigger groups and wedding or corporate travel. Every vehicle is AC, cleaned before the trip, and driven by a verified, GPS-tracked driver. We also pick up door-to-door from nearby places like Phagwara, Kapurthala Town, Jalandhar Cantonment if that's closer to you.
The drive: roads, tolls and where to stop
You'll pass through Ludhiana, Ambala, Chandigarh; good spots to pause for food or fuel. an estimated 1 toll plaza (roughly Rs. 140 total, figure is an estimate and confirmed at booking). All tolls and state taxes are included in your Sairgah upfront fare, so you pay nothing extra to the driver. Chandigarh: Mild year-round. Event and match days around the stadium can cause localised traffic; allow buffer time on weekends.
How the fare is built
The number you see when you book is the number you pay at the end. That covers fuel, toll tax, state entry tax, the driver's meals, GST and parking — built up from the 165.3 km distance at the vehicle's per-km rate plus the driver's daily allowance. There's no "toll extra, sir" at the end of the trip. Short routes may carry a minimum-km floor.
One-way drop or round trip?
Two ways to book: a one-way drop, where you're not charged for the driver's return if they can pick up another fare back; or a round trip, where the driver waits and brings you home. One-way usually costs less if you're flying or training back. Round trip makes sense if you want the car with you at Chandigarh for local sightseeing or a return within a couple of days.
