NATIONAL COMMON MOBILITY CARD (NCMC)
National Common Mobility Card (NCMC) - One Nation, One Card for transport mobility is an initiative of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs to enable seamless travel by different metros and other transport systems across the country besides retail shopping and purchases.
The Indigenous Automatic Fare Collection System based on One Nation One Card Model is the first of its kind in India.
NCMC is an automatic fare collection system.
It will turn smartphones into an inter-operable transport card that commuters can use eventually to pay for Metra, bus and suburban railways services.
Idea of NCMC was floated by the Nandan Nilekani committee set up by the Reserve Bank of India.
