About This Route
Vellore to Pondicherry runs south-east through Tiruvannamalai and Villupuram to the coast. It is travelled by families leaving Vellore after a hospital stay for a few quiet days by the sea, by visitors combining the Sripuram Golden Temple and Vellore Fort with a Puducherry break, and by students and working people moving between the two towns.
A one-way drop suits most of these trips. You pay for one side only — no return fare is added to a drop — and the fare follows the per-km rate for the cab class you choose with driver beta included, with a minimum running distance on every booking. Toll is extra at actuals and is told to you when the team confirms your fare, and the fare estimate for each cab type is shown further down this page.
Pickup is from any address in Vellore — a home, a lodge or hotel, the lanes around whichever CMC campus you are visiting, or Katpadi railway station. The drop can be any address in Puducherry, including White Town, the Ashram quarter and the guesthouses around Auroville, and the driver stops for meals and breaks on the way as your group needs.
- One-way drop — pay one side only, no return fare on a drop.
- Pickup from any address in Vellore, including CMC Hospital and Katpadi railway station.
- Drop at any address in Puducherry, from White Town to Auroville.
- Toll at actuals — confirmed with you before you travel.
- Sedans and seven-seaters for families and groups with luggage.

How much is a Vellore to Pondicherry taxi?
The fare estimate by cab type shown on this page gives the current figure for each cab class, worked out from our per-km tariff for the road distance with driver beta included. Toll is extra at actuals, and your exact pickup and drop addresses change the distance slightly, so the TaxiMint team confirms the final fare with you before anything is booked.
Can you pick up from CMC Hospital in Vellore?
Yes. Enter your pickup as CMC Hospital, Vellore — or the lodge or hotel where you are staying — and the driver comes to that address at the time you choose. Share a landmark or a pin location when the team calls, as the lanes around the hospital can be busy.
Is a one-way drop cheaper than a round trip for Vellore to Pondicherry?
If you only need to reach Pondicherry, yes — a one-way drop is charged for one side only, so there is no return fare on your bill. A round trip is worth it when the same cab and driver bring you back to Vellore: it is priced on the days and the distance covered, with a minimum running distance per day. Tell the team your plan and they will confirm which works out better.
