Short answer: No. On outstation trips involving a night away from Bhopal, a driver allowance covering his night halt and food is charged separately from the per-kilometre fare. It is stated in the quote before you book.

What the allowance covers
On a multi-day trip the driver has to eat and sleep somewhere. The allowance covers that. It is a fixed amount per night away, not a percentage of the fare, and it does not change with the vehicle type. Same-day trips that return to Bhopal do not attract it.Whether you arrange his accommodation
Some customers prefer to arrange the driver's accommodation themselves — hotels often have driver rooms at a nominal rate. If you do, tell us and the allowance is adjusted accordingly. Either way, the driver should not be sleeping in the vehicle on a multi-night trip; that is not a saving worth making.Where it appears in the quote
We state the allowance per night in the written quote alongside the per-km rate, minimum running, toll and permit. If a quote does not mention it and the trip involves a night away, ask — because it will appear later.Why Book With Krishna Travels
