In referemce to your letter No TC-I/2021/I04/efile/Epayment(3342227) dated 08. 1 2.2023 it is clarified that the E-payment of freiglht is currently operational for 65 Îreight customers over East Central Railway as per agreenment. Out of 65 E-paymert customers, 36 customers have already signed agreement with payment of ancillary charges through e-payment gateway.
Ensuring provision of payment of ancillary charges through E-payment helps in realizing these charges through RR in a systematic and regular basis. Certain charges like engine hire charges.
shunting charges, penalty for failure of weigh bridges, charges with respect to penalty related to re-weighment cases, undercharges with respect to audit observations can be realized through RR through this facility. Moreover, addition of clause for payment of ancillary charges in tripartite agreementl speeded up clearance of outstandings lying against E-Payment freight customers over this Railway. However, NTPC Limited has con tested and not agreed to sign with the above clause. In This regard this office has already intimated EDFM Railway Board, New Delhi vide this office letter under reference (i) and asked for guidelines.
In this situation please look into the matter and give necessary guideline to resolve the issue of payment of ancillary charges along with freight payment.
