Driving from Puri to Cuttack? It's roughly a 90.5 km run, about 1 hour 39 minutes behind the wheel depending on stops and the time you leave. The route mostly follows NH16 or NH19 (the eastern corridor), and fares with Sairgah start at ₹2,999 for a sedan — Innova and Tempo Traveller options are there if you're travelling with family or a larger group.
The Puri to Cuttack cab ride covers approximately 91 km and usually takes about 1 hour via NH16 or NH19 (the eastern corridor). The fare you see is the fare you pay, no surge, no meter, tolls included. Your advance is held in escrow until pickup, every driver is KYC-verified, and you get GPS tracking plus english, hindi, and bengali support.
The drive: roads, tolls and where to stop
an estimated 1 toll plaza (roughly Rs. 80 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.
Car options for the Puri–Cuttack run
A sedan (Dzire, Amaze, Etios — comfortable for four adults) is the default choice and the cheapest, starting at ₹2,999. 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. Closer to Cuttack, we cover Bhubaneswar, Choudwar, Belagachhia as well.
One-way vs round trip on this route
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 Cuttack for local sightseeing or a return within a couple of days.
Pricing — no surprises at drop
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 90.5 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.
