The new low floor D.T.C. buses, instead of it's alluring, glamorous, and magnetic properties, have one major shortcoming. And that is it's seating capacity. In a country, with the population of 1,150,000,000 (1.15 billion) people, buses with more seating capacity should and must be preferred. Also in India, where people are so unwilling to offer their seats to women and senior citizen, that they have to literary fight for it, to claim it; buses with low seating capacities, is definitely not a very wise decision. This is the only advantage that old D.T.C. enjoys over the new one, i.e. it's enormous seating capacity, apart from it's vintage value.
The lower seating capacity and the AC is to lure people away from the cars. Let's see if that happens.
