It seems there\u2019s no private (non\u2013Indian Railways) passenger train service<\/strong> operating between New Delhi and Chandigarh. The route is served exclusively by Indian Railways trains\u2014such as Shatabdi, Vande Bharat, Jan Shatabdi, Unchahar Express, Netaji Express, etc<\/p>\n

However, I can provide a detailed overview of the existing IRCTC trains<\/strong> along this route, including timetable, route, frequency, and fare estimates<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\n

            Route & Stops<\/h2>\n

            Most direct trains run via Ambala Cantonment<\/strong>, Karnal<\/strong>, en route from New Delhi to Chandigarh. For example, the Shatabdi service stops at Ambala and Karnal<\/p>\n

            \n

            Fare Estimates (Class-wise)<\/h2>\n

            According to Rome2rio<\/em>:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Sleeper Class<\/strong>: \u20b9190\u2013\u20b9230<\/li>\n
            • Third AC (3A)<\/strong>: \u20b9550\u2013\u20b91,300<\/li>\n

            • First AC (1A)<\/strong>: \u20b91,200\u2013\u20b93,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Per ixigo<\/em>, fares range between \u20b9155<\/strong> (Jan Shatabdi) to about \u20b91,185<\/strong>(Ixigo). Other platforms suggest starting fares around \u20b9324<\/strong>, but this might reflect average or bus\/train comparisons<\/p>\n

              Notes & Recommendations<\/h2>\n
                \n
              • Private trains<\/strong> (like IRCTC-operated Tejas) on this route were planned but not launched<\/strong> as of now<\/li>\n
              • Luxury tour trains<\/strong> like Deccan Odyssey or Maharajas’ Express do not operate specifically between New Delhi and Chandigarh for practical point-to-point travel<\/li>\n
              • For the best combination of speed and comfort<\/strong>, Vande Bharat is your top choice. For budget travel<\/strong>, Jan Shatabdi is cheapest.<\/li>\n
              • For exact seat availability, booking, or live updates, use IRCTC<\/strong>, RailYatri<\/strong>, ixigo<\/strong>, or related apps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                \n
