Southern Railway General Manager Rakesh Chopra said smart cards could be purchased by a passenger at Rs.100, of which Rs.50 is a refundable caution deposit. The cards are valid for six months from the time of last recharge and can be recharged for a value ranging from Rs.50 to Rs.2,000 in multiples of Rs.50. They can be bought at railway counters and can also be used to purchase platform tickets. No refunds are permitted on lost tickets and a duplicate ticket is provided at Rs.10.

Why do we need to invest Rs.100/- for this smart card?
Why there is a caution deposit for the Smart card even now a days banks are giving Debit/Credit cards free of charge?
Monthly passes are useful for the regular travellers. This will be helpful for the people who travel freguently but not regularly and also for the mobile workers/Employees.
Still people who will travel often needs to stand in the Queue!!
This could have been avoided by keeping the Vending machine which will accept money and provide tickets like the ones in US.
Do we will still needs to go long way to solve the problem of all types of people????
Think over.... and give your points.....
