Answer:

Ref. No. 1175 Alif

In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful

The answer to your question is as follows:

If the actual fare is 5 rupees, then you don’t have to do anything more. It is the mistake of conductor that he gave you ticket of 7 rupees. But if the actual fare is 7 rupees, then you have to pay him 2 rupees more. If it is not possible to pay him, then you should give 2 rupees in charity.  And Allah knows best
