Bus routes, schedules and fares for buses in Himachal
Here is the link to Himachal Road Transport Corporation’s (HRTC) time table page; one can find details here regarding fare, time schedule and bus availability between various towns in Himachal.

While the fare and time schedule might not be 100% accurate, it does provides a good reference point.

Re: Bus routs, schedules and fares for buses in Himachal
that being said, another interesting source is just dial (2222 2222) or www.justdial.com you can get phone numbers for most state roadways offices and they can completely guide you.

An equally naish source is www.redbus.in They are well worth the money, and even if a bus is not seen on website, you can call them up and they can fix up things for you. Very cooperative and helpful staff. Full marks to them!

Just checked, not a very useful service. Good for someone who already has an idea. Like I know manali-delhi has an AC volvo, but say for recongpeo, i needed multiple tries to figure what class of bus goes.

Like airlines, it should self-select the possible destinations for a given origin (like delhi-shimla, manali, sangla etc etc). again, redbus might be of use where pvt buses go.

Hitanshu thats a nice website, even though it just lists private operators and major destinations.

As for HRTC website, yes it’s a major short coming.
