Thanks

That was certainly my experience when entering at Mumbai in September. The dedicated e-Visa line was significantly slower and each person and family required much more processing than other lines. I've been in India twice now n the past year and yes, I will apply for the standard multi-entry visa if I need to go again. Not sure what the e-Visa is really gaining.
