Subsequently, passengers can confirm their journey by choosing their convenience and path of choice from the options shown.

For example, if you want to travel from Ghaziabad to Noida Sector 16, write Ghaziabad in the beginning station and Noida Sector 16 in the destination. Along with this, the route map of the journey from Ghaziabad to New Ashok Nagar from Ghaziabad to New Ashok Nagar and from there will be displayed by the Metro Blue Line to Noida Sector 16.
It will take the payment to the window as soon as it is selected, where it will generate two separate QR based digital tickets for Namo India and the metro as soon as they are paid.
