How Much Does Train and Railway Station Advertising Cost in India?

In a country where over 23 million passengers travel by train every day, Indian Railways offers a unique platform for brands to be consistently visible and widely recognized. From local trains in Mumbai to express routes across states, train advertising isn’t just about visibility—it’s about being where your audience already is.

But how much does it cost to advertise on a train or at a railway station in India? In this blog, we’ll break it down for you—costs, options, and why more brands are choosing Litoust India Pvt. Ltd. for their railway advertising needs.

Why Train Advertising Works

Railways are the lifeline of India, and advertising on trains or inside stations guarantees mass exposure across diverse demographics. Whether you want to target office-goers in metros or travelers in tier-2 cities, trains offer an unmatched mix of reach and repetition.

Additionally, formats such as full train wraps, inside panels, station hoardings, foot-over-bridge ads, and digital screens provide opportunities for both bold branding and strategic targeting.

So, What’s the Train Advertising Cost in India?

The cost of train advertising depends on various factors like

  • Location (e.g., Mumbai, Delhi, regional routes)
  • Format (train wrap, inside panels, station ads)
  • Duration (short-term campaign vs. long-term branding)
  • Train type (local vs. long-distance)

According to market averages, train advertising can start at around ₹150 to ₹250 per sq. ft. for exterior branding and between ₹25,000 to ₹100,000+ per train/month for inside panel or full-wrap formats.
