Sub:e-tickets – Photo ID - (Commercial Circular No. 56 of 2008)

Ref: This office letter of even number dated 22.12.2004 (Commercial Circular No.49 of 2004).

As per the instructions contained in this office letter dated 22-12-2004 referred to above, the passenger booking e-tickets has to specify at the time of booking the type of one of the specified identification card, he/she will be carrying during the journey. In case the passenger forgets to carry that proof, he/she is considered travelling without ticket and penalized accordingly, even if he/she has some other valid proof to establish his/her identity. This has become a cause of complaint and is acting as impediment in the proliferation of e-ticketing.

2. The matter has been reviewed and it has been decided as under:-

(i) The existing provision of specifying the type of proof of identification at the time of booking e-ticket should be dispensed with.

(ii) Since the condition of indicating proof of identity has been dispensed with, the concept of master passenger (whose ID is indicated on the ticket – two permissible at present) will no longer be there. In fact, during the journey even if any one passenger booked on an e-ticket presents any of the five identity cards mentioned below in original, the same may be accepted as proof of

identity:-

a) Voter Identity Card.

b) Passport.

c) PAN Card.

d) Driving Licence; and

e) Photo identity cards issued by Central/State Government.

It will be the responsibility of the passenger carrying any one proof of identification mentioned above that the other passengers booked on the e-ticket are bonafide passengers and are not travelling on someone else’s name.

(iii) If none of the passenger is carrying any one the proof of identity as mentioned in para (ii) above, the passengers will be treated as travelling without ticket and shall be charged accordingly.

(iv) The existing provision of carrying Electronic Reservation Slip(ERS) will continue and if the passenger fails to carry the ERS, a penalty of Rs.50/- will be imposed.

(v) There will be no change in other instructions regarding e-ticketing scheme.

(vi) Necessary Software changes arrangements may be made accordingly by CRIS/IRCTC who will inform the date of effect to this office as well as all zonal Railways.

(vii) Suitable instructions may be issued to all concerned particularly ticket checking staff so that no inconvenience is caused to the bonafide passengers booked on e-ticket.

(viii) Staff involved in harassment of e-ticket users should be dealt with strictly and it may be ensured that there is no complaint on account of ignorance of this provision.

(ix) Wide publicity should be given by IRCTC and zonal railways about this feature for the information of general public.

(x) A review of the changes made will be undertaken after six months taking into account the following factors:-

a) The number of occasions in which the name of the passenger was got changed in tickets booked as e-tickets;

b) Misuse of the changed provisions by unscrupulous element;

c) Any other information received from Zonal Railways or some other sources.

Sub: Earmarking of Reservation quota for Cancer Patient (Commercial Circular No. 61 of 2008)

There has been demand for earmarking of separate quota for Cancer patient. At present this quota has been earmarked in Sleeper/AC-3 tier classes for Cancer Patient traveling either alone or accompanied by attendant on eligible concession order in 9 trains originating from Mumbai area of Central Railway.

2. The matter has been further reviewed and it has been decided as under:-

(i) The cancer patients and their attendants travelling on concessional tickets issued in exchange of concession certificate as mentioned in column 4 of S.N.11 of Annexure of Rule 101 of IRCA Coaching Tariff Part I, Vol-II approaching for reservation will be provided accommodation out of the general quota, if vacant at the time of booking.

(ii) In case all the confirmed berths are already booked, computerized Passenger Reservation System (PRS) will automatically access Emergency Quota and provide them confirmed berths out of the Emergency Quota of that class earmarked at originating/intermediate station, whose general quota was being accessed.

(iii) Hence the cancer patients travelling with their attendants would now be provided accommodation in following sequence:-

a) General quota- to the extent available(till wait list is started)

b) Cancer quota – to the extent available, wherever defined.

c) Emergency quota- to the extent available.

d) General wait list.

(iv) The emergency quota controlling authority before releasing the emergency quota will first check with the PRS terminal and should allot only the left over available berths in emergency quota so as to avoid any excess allotment of berths out of the emergency quota i.e. in case out of 20 berths earmarked as emergency quota in any class in a train, six berths has already been allotted to cancer patients and their attendants at the booking counter itself, the emergency quota controlling authority will release only 14 berths.

(v) In case subsequent to release of Emergency Quota, the number of actual availability of berths/seats gets reduced due to booking by Cancer Patients, Quota controlling authority would reduce the emergency quota allotment to that extent.

(vi) If any berth(s) booked by Cancer patient(s) against Emergency Quota is cancelled before preparation of charts, the same should revert to the Emergency Quota.

3. Necessary modifications in the software has been carried out by CRIS and have been offered to Zonal Railways for testing.

4. It is desired that this facility should be available on-line w.e.f. 01.12.08 for Cancer patients and their attendants traveling on concessional certificate.

5. Necessary instructions may be issued to all concerned and wide publicity should

be given through all possible means for the information of general public.

Sub:- Cancellation of tickets purchased through Thin Clients in UTS.

(Commercial Circular No.69.2008.)

In the present system, if a ticket is issued from a Thin Client and cancelled from a dumb terminal after the data has been transferred to the backend server, the ticket can again be cancelled from the Thin Client which has originally issued it . This fact is prone to misuse since the Thin client issuing the ticket does not check with the back end server. The metter has been examined and it has been decided that the following procedure may be adopted for cancellation of tickets issued by UTS :

i) For tickets issued from dumb terminals, cancellation can be done from any terminal subject to connectivity being available with back end server.

ii) For tickets issued from thin clients, if network connectivity is available, then cancellation may be permitted from any counter. However, if connectivity is not available then cancellation will be permissible only from the terminal which issued that ticket since transaction data would be stored on that terminal.

Under all options operator must be having physical custody of the ticket being cancelled and the said ticket should not be more than 24 hrs. old.

Sub: Procedure for calculation of stabling charges on BLC/BLL rakes owned by Container Train Operators.

1. Stabling charges are to be recovered as per Railway Board’s letter No. TC-I/98/201/4 dated 17.1.2008 or extant rate notified by Railway Administration from time to time.

2. As per Concession Agreement para 7.6.1 (iii), in case the Concessionaire’s Train suffers detention en route due to any reason attributable to the Concessionaire, he will be liable to pay stabling charges.

3. In order to streamline the recovery of stabling charges following procedure should be adopted by all the Zonal Railways:

1. When congestion occurs at a terminal owned by an entity other than the Indian Railways, the Railway will first stable rakes for the terminal on its own system advising the Division on which stabling has occurred, to raise stabling charges as per the Railway Board’s letter No. TC-I/98/201/4 dated 17.1.2008 or extant rate notified by Railway Administration from time to time.

2. If the congestion persists and the terminal Railway is forced not to accept rakes for the terminal from other Zonal Railways, the Zonal Railway on which the terminal is located will issue a recorded control message, indicating message number and date and time of issue message to all the Railways informing them of its inability to accept rakes for the terminal. A Copy of the message issued should be marked to TAO office of the concerned Railways.

3. This message will specially state that the trains are being refused due to congestion at the terminal on account of the concessionaire. Each Control office will keep a record of such messages. Chief Controller or a person authorized on his behalf will personally ensure that the instructions contained in para 3.4 and 3.5 below are strictly and accurately complied with by the station staff where stabling of container train takes place.

4. When a rake for a congested terminal is stabled at a station on account of such message, the Station Master concerned will record under his signature the details of the message of the issuing railway and the date and time of stabling. The Station Master will also specifically record on the vehicle guidance of the train that the stabling is on account of the concessionaire.

5. On removal of the congestion at the terminal, the terminating Railway will give a recorded message confirming its ability to accept the trains for the terminal. A copy of this message should be marked to TAO of the concerned Zonal Railways. This message will have a number, date and time of its issue and will have a reference to the earlier message regarding non –acceptance. On receipt of the message the Station Master of the Station where the train for terminal is stabled will make an endorsement under his signature on the Vehicle Guidance recording the time and date when acceptance has been issued by the terminal Railway.

6. Station Master referred to in these instructions would mean the Station Master himself or any other authorized staff on his behalf.

7. The concessionaire will be liable to pay stabling charges for the duration from the time when the train was stabled due to non acceptance of the rake on account of congestion and up to the time when the acceptance message was issued.

8. For the purpose of determining the period of stabling on concessionaire’s account, the endorsements on the vehicle guidance as given in sub –Para 3.4 and 3.5 above will be referred to

9. At the destination station, before giving delivery of the containers, vehicle guidance will be checked. In case stabling has been recorded on account of the concessionaire, stabling charges will be recovered as per Para 7.6 of the concession agreement. A watch may also be kept by TAO office of destination Railway. TAO may watch the recovery of stabling charges by developing a suitable mechanism in the office or through the TIA. Provided however that Stabling Charges shall be levied only where the detention of the Concessionaire’s train is for a period in excess of 4 (four) hours.

10. It is clarified that stabling charges will be levied when stabling occurs due to any of the reasons mentioned in Para 7.6.1 of the concession agreement.

4. The above instructions will come in force with effect from 10.10.2008.

5. This issues with the concurrence of Finance and Commercial Directorates of the Railway Board.

Processing Procedure

1 Proposals under the scheme should be submitted to DRM concerned.

2 After scrutiny of DEC, the proposals should be forwarded to CCM of the concerned Zonal Railway.

3 CCM would examine the proposal personally in consultation with COM for personal vetting of FA&CAO and personal approval of General Manager, subject to the conditions of the scheme.

These instructions will come into force with effect from 27.10.2008 and shall remain valid up to three months i.e. 26.01.2009.

This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.

2. No. TC-1/2005/201/2 Pt.B dt 08.03.07 (Rates Circular No. 21 of 2007)

Vide Rates Circulars referred to above, Railway can increase the demurrage and wharfage rates, even at progressively increasing rate, subject to a maximum of six times of the prevalent rate. These panel/higher rates are to be implemented in case of excessive congestion at any terminal and only after giving wide publicity and due notice of 48 hours.

It has come to the notice of Board the Zonal Railways are levying penal demurrage and wharfage charges at a rate of six times of the prevalent rate in a routine manner. It is to clarify that in terms of extant instructions, penal /higher rates can be increased upto maximum of 6 times of the prevalent rate, implying thereby that these rates can be increased by say, 2 times or 3 times or so on, and not necessarily 6 times at one go in all cases. In fact Railway may decide to levy variable rates like 2 times for first 3 hours detention, 3times for next 12 hours detention and so on and so forth.

Railway must judiciously evaluate the situation and the rates should be increased on merit to the extent considered justified. Levy of six times rates should be resorted only when the situation becomes very alarming.

Sub: Punitive charges for overloading

In terms of Para no. 3 of Gazette notification dated 15.06.2007 regarding Railways (punitive charges for overloading of wagons) Rules 2007, no punitive charges are to be levied if the customer carries out load adjustment at the originating station itself in case of detection of overloading at originating point.

Vide instruction no. 10 of Rates circular no. 86/2006 dated 13.10.2006, it was decided that weighment of rakes/wagons at associate weighbridge/alternative associate weighbridge shall be treated as weighment at forwarding station for all purposes.

A clarification has been sought whether punitive charges for overloading are to be levied or not in case of load adjustment at the weighment points of associate weighbridge /alternative associate weighbridge which are not located at loading point itself or at serving station of siding.

The matter has been examined and it is clarified that if adjustment in load is carried out at associate weighbridge /alternative associate weighbridge points which are not located at loading point itself or serving station of siding, it should not be treated as adjustment at originating point as mentioned in Para no. 3 of Gazette notification dated 15.06.2007. In such cases, the punitive charges for overloading should be levied for the entire distance to be travelled by the train hauling the wagon from the originating station to the destination point , irrespective of point of load adjustment. Punitive charges for overloading will not be levied in terms of Para No.3 of Gazette notification dated 15.06.2007 only when load adjustment is done at the originating station including serving station if any.

These instructions will be applicable for the weight done after 02.11.08. However, past cases, where punitive charges have not been levied after adjustment at associate weighbridge /alternate associate weighbridge location treating it as adjustment at originating point, should not be reopened.

This issues with the approval of Finance Directorate of Ministry of Railways.

Sub:- Freight concessions under WIS, LWIS, TIELS &TDS. (Rates Circular No. 61 of 2008)

Freight concessions are granted under various Incentive Schemes issued from time to time. Querries have been raised as to whether concession under WIS, LWIS, TIELS &TDS will be applicable concurrently with the concessions given in other schemes.

2. The matter has been examined. It has been decided that concession under WIS, LWIS, TIELS &TDS shall be applicable concurrently with other concessions/incentives admissible under other schemes unless and until mentioned otherwise in the specific scheme.

Examples are given below to illustrate the above.

The customer may be permitted 10% concession under one scheme and 20% under other scheme. The freight charges will be calculated in following way:

NTR = Rs. 100

Rate after first concession of 10% = Rs. 100- 10% of Rs.100 = Rs.90

Rate after second concession of 20% = Rs. 90 – 20% Rs.90 = Rs 72

Thus, the net freight rate will be Rs. 72 per Tonne.

The concessions can be given in any order, as the net freight will have no impact. In this case, net freight rate could have been calculated by first giving 20% concession and then 10% concession on reduced rate.

3. These instructions will come into force w.e.f 10.11.2008.

4. These instructions are applicable prospectively and no past cases will be re-opened on this account.

5. This issues with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.

Sub: Levy of Punitive charges for overloading and penalty for misdeclaration in container.

Vide Part III of situation ‘A’ and ‘B’ of Gazette Notification dated 15.06.2007, rates of Punitive charges for overloading for container train were notified. Punitive charges for overloading in case of container train are to levied at the rate of 2 times of freight rate applicable to that commodity or 3/5 times of freight rate applicable to the highest class depending upon the situation and extent of overloading.

Clarification has been sought regarding calculation of the punitive charges on the overloaded container wagons in absence of PCC of the wagons and class rate of commodity. Further, a clarification has also been sought regarding tariff for charging in case of misdeclaration of commodities.

It is clarified that the marked CC of the wagon is to be taken as PCC of the wagon.

The punitive charges for overloading in case of container trains as per gazette notification dated 15.06.2007, as amended from time to time, should be calculated as per following procedure.

a) In case, when the punitive charges are to be levied at the highest Class rate, the highest Class as mentioned in Goods Tariff may be taken in to account for calculation. Presently, the highest Class to be reckoned for the purpose of charging punitive charges for overloading is Class 200.

b) In case, when the punitive charges are to be levied at the freight rate applicable to that commodity, freight applicable to that commodity for the purpose of levying punitive charges for overloading will be calculated as under:

Freight Rate/tonne = Haulage rate per TEU for “above 26 T” /26 Tonne.

For example, the applicable haulage rate per TEU under table “above 16T’ for the distance between 2001-2050 is Rs. 28802 then.

Freight rate /tonne=Rs. 28802/26/i.e Rs. 1108

In case where punitive charges for overloading is to be levied for 2 times of the applicable rate, punitive charges will be Rs. 1108x2 =Rs. 2216 per tonne. If the overloading is, say 2 tonnes on a container wagon, the applicable punitive charges will be Rs. 2216x2 =Rs. 4432 on that wagon.

For dealing with the cases of misdeclaration, instructions issued vide Board’s letter No. TCR/221/2206/1 dated 08.11.06 (Rates circular No. 95/2006) are applicable.

This issues with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.

Sub: Policy Guidelines –Freight Incentive Schemes and Transportation Products.

Ref:- Corrigendum No.2 to Rates Circular No. 25 of 2008.

In terms of Board’s letter TCR/1078/2008/15 dt. 07.11.2008 (Corrigendum No. 2 to Rates Circular No. 25 of 2008),Incentive Scheme for Short Lead Cement Traffic was introduced. Certain queries have been raised about the scheme. The matter has been reviewed. Following clarifications are issued about the scheme.

Concurrent Freight Concession

i) Concurrency of the concession will be strictly as per the stipulation mentioned under the heading “Concurrent Freight Concession” of the scheme. Concession under various other Freight Incentive Scheme mentioned in Rates Circular No. 25 of 2008 like LTSIS, Incentive Scheme for Traditional Emtpy Flow Directions, Incentive Scheme for loading bagged Consignment in BOXN etc will not be permitted concurrently with the incentive Scheme for Short Lead Cement Traffic.

However, there may be cases when a customer who has already been sanctioned concession under any other scheme like LTSIS, may want to avail concession for particular stream of traffic under this scheme . In such case, concession under this scheme for that particular stream of traffic may be granted provided the same traffic is not granted concession under any other Freight Incentive Scheme and for scheme like LTSIS, this traffic will not be reckoned for the purpose of fulfillment of earning target.

(ii) Graded concession effective from 01.4.2003 (Rate Circular No.11 of 2003 ) will be permitted. However, the lead upto 50 Km, for which permissible graded concession is 50%, has been kept out of the purview of the subject scheme. Even in these cases, floor rate condition as mentioned in circular under reference must be ensured. Rates should not be less than what they would be for class LR -2 for lead of 100Km

Condition no. 9 of the scheme

For the purpose of granting concession, incremental NTKM for the entire period of the scheme (i.e from 15.11.08 to 14.05.09) compared to NTKM earned for the entire corresponding period of previous year (i.e from 15.11.2007 to 14.5.2008) will be considered. The incremental NTKM will not be calculated on monthly basis.

If the NTKM earned for the distance 51 to 300 Kms for the period 15.11.2007 to 14.05.2008 is exceeded while loading of a particular rake during Februrary 2009 (during the validity of this scheme ), concession will be given in February 2009 from the next rake subject to fulfillment of all other terms and conditions, provided NTKM earned for the distance 301 Km and above for the period 15.11.2008 to 31.01.2009 is more than the NTKM earned for the distance 301 km and above for the period 15.11.2007 to 31.01.2008.

In certain cases, the customer may become eligible for concession under subject scheme during the period 15.11.2008 to 30.11.2008. In such case, concession will be granted as refund subject to fulfillment of all other terms and conditions, provided NTKM earned for the distance 301 km and above for the period 15.11.2008 to 30.11.2008 is more than the NTKM earned for the distance 301 km and above for the period 15.11.2007 to 30.11.2007.

Applicable Terminals

The scheme clearly lays down that the scheme will be applicable to all terminals except goods shed where the NTKM of bagged cement traffic in the corresponding period of previous year was Nil. The scheme is applicable is cases of all private .assisted siding, even if the NTKM of bagged cement traffic in corresponding period of previous year in private/assisted siding is nil. In such cases, the entire traffic becomes incremental.

COM and CCM of Zonal Railways should actively interact with the customer and explain to them modalities and advantages of the scheme so as to attract short lead cement traffic from road to rail.

These issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
