Indian Railways' overall revenue at the end of August 2022 stood at Rs. 95,486.58 crore (US$ 1.99 billion), an increase of 38% YoY. This has been accomplished through increased loading of more than 58 MT throughout the period and an increase in net tonne-kilometres (NTKMs) of 18%.

Along with the transportation of coal, other significant contributors to this development include food grains, fertiliser, cement, mineral oil, container traffic, and the balance of other commodities divisions.

The volume of passengers in both the reserved and unreserved segments grew in comparison to the previous year. According to the Indian Railways, growth in long-distance reserved mail express trains has been more rapid than in passenger and suburban trains.
