Confirming the development, a senior officer of the state transport department said, "Metre recalibration of auto rikshaw is going on at Andheri and testing of updated meter of taxis is going on at Wadala testing track, if needed more test track will be started."

After the revision in fare, meter recalibration has become mandatory for both auto rickshaws and taxis.
