(ii) Dy.CPM ICMS mail dated 25.06.2024 regarding charging of BLC rake as mini
rake,

In terms of Board’s circulars under reference, policy guidelines were issued for running of
Mini Rakes of Container. Instances have been reported that charging for mini rake is not being
done as per the policy guidelines. The issues raised have been examined and following
clarification in the matter is being issued:

a) Policy guidelines may be implemented in letter and spirit and only after fulfillment of
terms and conditions stipulated therein.

b) Customer should be given option to select Mini Rake composition while registering
indent.

c) Necessary provision may be made to ensure that actual number of wagons physically
placed for loading is not less than 25 wagons. Further, maximum number of wagons supply
should be less than the minimum composition of the rake notified. If the rake consists of wagons
corresponding to minimum composition or more, the normal charging will be done.

d) Since the Mini Rake will run on the routes approved by the concerned Zonal Railway,
FOIS system should incorporate the routes notified by Zonal Railways for operation of mini rake
scheme.

e) Supplementary charge on such Mini Rake should be levied only after fulfillment of
terms and conditions for Mini Rake.

f) Charging of full container rake (minimum composition/standard composition) will
continue to be done as per extant instructions.

Necessary action may be taken accordingly. ie
