Regarding the definition of Normal Freight Rate: Since 2006 onwards all types of concession is being granted on NTR unless otherwise specified to the contrary. As mentioned in Rates Circular No.47 of 2006, the word ‘Concession on Normal Freight Rate’ connotes Normal Tariff Rate.

Regarding admissibility of concurrent concession: Rates Circular No. 25 of 2007, clearly states that in case two or more concessions are permissible, subsequent concessions will be given on reduced rates derived after giving concession. Concession under both the schemes i.e. Rates Circular No. 7 of 2008 and Rates Circular No. 47 of 2006 are applicable concurrently. ~

It is requested that the case should be defended effectively on the above guidelines.
