A monthly permit for 100 rides worth Rs. 999 would be provided to students starting on August 22 at their local bus depot, according to the official statement from Brihanmumbai Electric Supply & Transport (BEST).

“For graduates and recent graduates, BEST has introduced a special student concession bus pass. They would receive passes good for 100 travels totaling Rs 999 for Rs 500. Beginning on August 22, 2022, the passes can be purchased online through the “BEST Chalo app” or at the closest bus depot” , the BEST Bus Transportation tweeted.

The decision was made one day after Maharashtra’s chief minister Eknath Shinde suggested giving pupils bus passes.
Since school and junior college students already received discounted prices, the fares for UG and PG students are now included in the student fare as of this announcement.
