Bhubaneswar's Transit Fare Card: From Odyssey to NCMC
Bhubaneswar's 2018 Odyssey City Card — a Bhubaneswar Smart City Limited/ICICI Bank prepaid card for bus fares, parking and municipal payments — has stopped issuing new cards, per ICICI's own site. Odisha's government replaced it in August 2025 with the National Common Mobility Card and WhatsApp ticketing, run by transit operator CRUT across Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Puri and other cities.
