TNSTC divisions, enquiry and booking
TNSTC: questions
Where can I see TNSTC bus timings?
TNSTC (the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation's regional divisions: Coimbatore, Madurai, Salem, Villupuram, Kumbakonam, Tirunelveli) does not publish a bulk open timetable, so Ask Bengaluru does not list its town-to-town timings. Use the route search on tnstc.in (which covers TNSTC and SETC reserved services), the TNSTC mobile app, or the enquiry counter at the bus stand. For SETC (the long-distance arm) we list every departure from the Tamil Nadu government's open dataset.
How do I get from Bengaluru to Tamil Nadu by bus?
KSRTC runs to 6 Tamil Nadu towns from Karnataka stands (every departure is on the destination pages above), SETC runs from Bengaluru to Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai, Kanyakumari and more, and TNSTC Salem and Coimbatore divisions run frequent Hosur–Bengaluru and Salem–Bengaluru services from the Shantinagar and Kalasipalya stands.
What is the difference between TNSTC and SETC?
Both belong to the Tamil Nadu government. TNSTC's divisions run town, mofussil and intercity services within and around their regions; SETC runs the long-distance Ultra Deluxe and AC express routes (over roughly 300 km), including interstate services to Bengaluru, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.
How do I book TNSTC or SETC tickets?
On tnstc.in or the TNSTC app for reserved services (SETC and TNSTC express); ordinary and town buses sell tickets on board. Ask Bengaluru does not sell tickets.
