Also I can see bus with only JN 139 etc running, why this anomoly and can we get a figure of how many bus really allotted for trivandrum as of now.

Ac buses will be JNT1 to JNT30
Non Ac - JNT31 to JNT150. right?

The total quota for Trivandrum is 150 buses - 30 Volvo + 120 AL LF Non-AC buses. You are seeing JNT142 because KSRTC has divided the bonnet number as JNT1 to JNT30 for Volvo and JNT31 to JNT150 for Non-AC. JNT21 to JNT30 is currently Vacant, since Volvo has denied delivery owing to pending payment. There are 20 Volvos running in Trivandrum now (2 buses are spare).

The JN139 bus you see is actually JNK139 - Low Floor Non-AC buses meant for Kochi are being run in Trivandrum temporarily. This is because many Ananthapuri Fast buses have been transferred to Pamba for the Sabarimala season - these Non-AC LFs will run instead of them. After the season ends, these buses would be transferred to Kochi.

Then what about the collection in these buses?Will it be accounted in TVM itself or at Ernakulam?

The depot that operates the bus will record the collection. I understand your concerns.

Not to start another debate and just for the record, BOTH Volvos and SLFs are recording higher revenue in Trivandrum.

AFAIK, it will be a pass-through facility only and will be used by both public and private services.

KSRTC's depots within the core city are wasting valuable real estate. They should be moved out to the suburbs and the land should be monetized to reduce the Corporation's debt as well as spur development.

Thanks Ajay. So this will be the first exclusive terminal in the City. Hope such facilities will be started in other parts also, to avoid buses being parked in the Main road, causing traffic jams.
