Ref: (i) Corr. No.53 & 55 to Rates Master Circular/CRT-CCR- Hub&Spoke/2015/0 dated 20.11.2023 and 09.05.2024 respectively.

(ii) Board’s letter of even number dated 18.07.2024

The issues raised in the mail under reference (iii) have been examined in the light of policy guidelines issued vide reference (i) above.

With reference to point (4) in the above referred mail regarding composition of Mini Rake (Containers), it is clarified that in case of multiple CTOs, system should not decide automatically whether the demand is for mini rake or otherwise. The customer should have option for the same. Further, it was earlier clarified that ‘minimum composition of mini rake for containers is 25 wagons and maximum number of wagons supply should be less than the minimum composition of the rake notified’. For example; in case of mini rake of BLC stock, composition of mini rake should be 25-39 wagons (which is subject to indenting by the party and supply of required composition of wagons to the party for loading), as the standard and minimum composition of BLC rake is 45 and 40 wagons.

All other points mentioned in the mail appear in consonance with the policy guidelines and clarification issued.

Necessary action may be taken accordingly.
