and 
its 
amendments 
 
Please refer to Para 2.4 of Chapter-III of Rates Master Circular/Demurrage-
Wharfage-Waiver/2016/0 regarding payment of Wharfage.  
 
The matter has been reviewed and it has been decided to revise the guidelines as 
given below- 
 
Existing Guidelines 
Revised Guidelines 
Para 2.4: In case of Wharfage, the 
consignor/consignee 
should 
first 
remove the consignment from the 
railway premises, deposit the amount 
of Wharfage charges and submit the 
original proof of such payment along 
with his application while preferring 
for waiver at the first instance itself. 
However, in case of regular rail users, 
instead of prepayment of Wharfage, 
FDR of appropriate value may be 
collected either on a case to case basis 
or in lumpsum (to be decided by DRMs 
in 
consultation 
with 
Sr.DFMs) 
depending on the value of Wharfage 
that accrues on the consignment of 
such 
users. 
In 
exceptional 
Para 2.4: In case of Wharfage, the 
consignor/consignee should deposit the 
amount of Wharfage charges and submit 
the original proof of such payment 
alongwith his application while preferring 
for waiver.  
 
Pre-payment of wharfage will be ensured 
before delivery of the consignment.
