The Meerut guide covers one line with two services. Namo Bharat is the regional rapid rail that links Delhi, Ghaziabad, Modinagar and Meerut. Meerut Metro runs inside Meerut and shares the line, the portal and the fare table. NCRTC's portal lists 23 stations from Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi to Modipuram in Meerut, all open to passengers.
Namo Bharat stops at 15 of them. Meerut Metro serves 12, and eight of those are Meerut-only stops. Four stations are shared: Meerut South, Shatabdi Nagar, Begumpul and Modipuram. The portal's FAQ gives the corridor as 82 km; its own fare data measures about 76 km end to end, and NCRTC does not explain the gap.
Fares come from NCRTC's station-pair matrix: Standard runs from Rs 20 to Rs 210 end to end, and Premium, which exists only on Namo Bharat trains, goes up to Rs 250. The portal states a first train at about 6:00 AM and a last at about 10:00 PM every day. A live check on 12 November 2026 showed trains about every 10 minutes.
The Meerut guide adds station pages with gates and lifts, the Delhi Metro links and a fare planner for any pair of stations.
