The minimum fare for autos is expected to go up from Rs 17 to Rs 18 while taxi fare is likely to go up from the minimum Rs 21 to Rs 22.<\/p>\n<p>The state government had earlier approached the high court seeking approval for the proposed hike.

Once the recalibration process is over the fare hike will be in place,&#8221; Vagyani said.<\/p>\n<p>The court has posted the matter for further hearing tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the court today adjourned till June 29 a petition filed by the Mumbai Grahak Panchayat seeking contempt action against the taxi and autorickshaw unions for resorting to strike on June 15 and 17 in the city.<\/p>\n<p>Taxi and autoriskshaw drivers had gone on strike to seek implementation of the proposed hike in fares and against scrapping of a one-man committee which recommended the hike.<\/p>\n<p>The contempt petition contended that the high court had passed an order in August 2013 observing that taxi and auto unions should not threaten to go on strike time and again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Maharashtra government today informed the Bombay High Court that taxi and autorickshaw fares would be increased based on the recommendation of the now-scrapped Hakim Committee till the newly set up committee submits its report.
