    Hello nik,

    If you order through this page of RailEurope India, you will indeed pay in rupees, not in Swiss francs. You can pay with your credit card. The total amount is:

    Pass: 51,454
    Shipping: free
    Handling: 304
    Discount: -1,300 (use this promo code to get the discount)
    Total: 50,458

    This specification is listed on our Swiss Pass page as well. There are no further costs. When I just checked their site the amount was actually a bit lower (50,164), so perhaps you’re lucky 🙂
