While the Railways usually does not share segment-wise profit data, figures from the Comptroller and Auditor General...

show that only the AC 3-tier — not even AC-1, AC 2-tier or chair car — segment is making operational profits. Within the AC segment, more people travel in the 3-tier segment than in the AC-1, AC-2 and chair car put together, according to the Railways’ data.
From April 1 to March 10 this fiscal year (FY17), 8.4 crore passengers travelled by AC 3-tier against 5.4 crore in the other AC segments. While AC-1 carried 30 lakh passengers, AC-2 and AC chair car booked 2.5 crore and 2.6 crore people, respectively.
Asked if this was the rationale for raising the share of the AC 3-tier segment, Mohd Jamshed, Member–Traffic, Railway Board, replied in the affirmative. He declined to comment on segment-wise profits or losses. Data for 2014-15 show that of the total loss of ₹32,000 crore, the sleeper class accounted for almost a third, followed by second class (26 per cent), ordinary class (23 per cent) and the suburban segment (14.41 per cent).
As for operating losses, the ordinary class runs at a 65 per cent loss, followed by EMU suburban services (64 per cent), second class (43 per cent) and sleeper class (41 per cent), respectively.
Railway officials declined to comment on any increase or rationalisation in passenger fares now that the elections in five States are over.

Clearly you can't see what I am talking about even if I reduce my arguments to school child level, so no point in continuing this.
You are not able to refute my point that a 3AC coach can only make profits when it is running full or as your reference points out only when it carries a high volume of passengers.
Trains like Humsafar don't make sense not because they are running on 3AC coaches but because they are running on routes that can't fill them adequately and they are also...

ultimately loss-making for the railways.
And you are here justifying churning out loss-making trains coz 3AC coaches on elsewhere regular trains are profitable. It's like feeding tigers hay just coz horses have grown healthy consuming it.
Lol, comprehend stuff man, before you throw news articles around.
Have fun anyways, I've made my point enough times I guess.

Means CAG AUDIT for flexi fare is wrong and u r correct...
