According to a notice, the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) has directed the enforcement of Stage 2 measures across Delhi-NCR as the city’s Air Quality Index (AQI) showed an increasing trend, touching 302 at 7 PM on Tuesday.
Officials said that NDMC currently manages 126 parking sites – including 99 off-road, three indoor/multi-level car parks, and 24 on-street sites.
Under the revised structure, parking for four-wheelers will now cost 40 per hour instead of Rs 20, while two-wheelers will be charged Rs 20 per hour. Bus parking fees have been increased from Rs 150 to Rs 300 per hour.
