DMRC has introduced a QR code-based multiple journey ticket for Delhi Metro to simplify the commute for users. This new system eliminates the need for users to carry a smart card. Previously, passengers could only use the metro's QR-based ticket for a single journey. With the new service, passengers can now use their smartphones as a smart card, avoiding the hassle of purchasing tickets daily, recharging smart cards, and carrying them around.

This initiative by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation started on September 13. DMRC stated that the Multiple Journey QR Code is a revolutionary digital initiative aimed at easing passengers' journeys. The Multiple Journey QR ticket can be purchased through the Delhi Metro's Momentum 2.0 app, which will function as a digital smart card. Passengers can use the app to travel on the Delhi Metro at their convenience.

Here's how to use the DMRC Multiple Journey QR Ticket:

  • 1. Download the DMRC Momentum 2.0 app on your smartphone.
