    Rs 50 off (Max upto 7%) - Isn't it wrong way of representing the coupon discount.. I'm still not able to understand what does it mean :unsure:

    Better way would have been 7% off (Maximum discount - Rs 50)

    So at 1 AM it will be 7-10% off (Max - Rs 200) ... Not worth deal.. will miss our A section for sure

    Yes, it is like that.
    If I try to book a ticket worth Rs. 607, discounted price is Rs 565.
    So discount of Rs 42=7%

    Nothing more than a marketing gimmick. Redbus if offering 10% OFF!

    yup that's what I said it's 7% off wid max cap of Rs 50 but the way of representation by goibibo is really weird :eek: ... seriously bad marketing gimmick and disappointed to see the discount offered by them... I atleast expected 50% off wid max cap of Rs 200 ( same discount paytm gave for more then 2 months ...)

    And I don't think people would be staying awake waiting for midnight! So not much benefit to any side:neither traveller nor goibibo

    Atleast they increased percentage ;)

    Any guesses for final discount @ 1 AM :p

    I would guess 20% off (Max Cap - Rs 200) or in goibibo terms - Rs 200 off (Max upto 20%)

    Hobbit bhai ur guess :p

    20% Max 200 at 1AM

    All frequent travellers don't use these booking websites because I had experience that prices here are inflated.
    Same ticket marked at Rs. 300 on this was available for Rs. 150 on the spot. Though I used Roadways ebooking atleast 4 times a month earlier.

    I was awake till 2Am, the code dint come up at all :( later saw that its just 15 at the end to replace but they dint update on site. So the offer expired

    Also prices are so much hiked because of the agitation going on in AP as Govt. buses are not running. Now I need 4 times X the price of normal cost to travel every week till this stops, as I m working in Hyderabad (Telangana) and I hail from Andhra
