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 277.4 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.
Should you book one-way or round?
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 Payal for local sightseeing or a return within a couple of days.
