The entire route of the train is on double-line electrified track section of Indian Railways.
The train's rake is split into at least three classes of reserved travel: AC 2 Tier (code: A/2A), AC 3 Tier (code:B/3A) and non air-conditioned reserved sleeper (SL). As it is a Sampark Kranti train, between 2 and 6 carriages requiring no previous travel reservation (code: General) are included. Along with Maharashtra Sampark Kranti and West Bengal Sampark Kranti, this train now runs LHB coaches. These three trains are the only Sampark Kranti Expresses to have LHB coaches.
Both trains hauled by Vadodara based WAP 7 (HOG) equipped locomotive on its entire journey.
The passenger fare between ADI and NZM varies from INR (Indian rupee) 1400 (A/2A) to INR 190 (General). Though its route is 150 km longer than the Ashram Express, the Gujarat Sampark Kranti averages a higher speed and takes 15 minutes less than the Ashram Express to travel from Delhi to Ahmedabad. This is attributable to the fact that the Samprak Kranti Express gets the benefit of electric traction, double line track and almost no stops outside Gujarat on its entire route. Gujarat Sampark Kranti Express is designated as a superfast train, which denotes that it gets priority over local (commuter) trains, standard express and passenger trains and most freight trains.
