Kolkata: Kolkata Metro will levy a surcharge of Rs 10 on every ticket for its night service train on the Dum Dum-New Garia corridor, an official said.

The night service train operates in both directions at 10.40 pm, he said.

The decision was taken as occupancy on the night service train is very poor, he added.

The surcharge will be added from December 10 irrespective of the distance travelled, the official said.
