Sub: Transportation Product: Mini Rake (Containers)

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.

Gi) Board’s letter of even number dated 18.07.2024
ii) Mail dated 06.08.2024 received from Dy. CPM/FOIS

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.
