- Despite the “special” label, this service operates reliably on a daily basis as of mid‑2025.

🧾 Note for Travelers from Aurangabad / Jalna
- The new Mumbai–Jalna Vande Bharat Express (20705/20706) offers a faster, modern alternative: ~6 h 50 min journey with AC Chair Car & Executive Chair Car. Ridership is now seven days a week, except Wednesday, on most days—first flagged off December 30, 2025, launched January 2025
- As a result, demand patterns for the Janshatabdi special may shift, but it continues to run on schedule as of July 2025.
