Sub: - Provision of private sidings on DFC network Ref: - Board’s letter of even number dated 14.03.2011 and 23.03.2011

In supersession of the above reffered letters of Railway Board, it has now

been decided by Board (MT, ME, FC, CRB) that:

1. As a general principle, the connectivity of sidings either with IR or with DFC should be determined taking into account the siding location, depending on whether it is located on the side of DFC or IR. If the proposed siding is located on the side DFC, the take-off should be from DFC line and, similarly, if it is on the side of Indian Railways, it should take off from Indian Railways line.

2. If a new siding is proposed to take-off from DFC line, the application for siding connectivity should be addressed to DFCCIL for examination and approval of the sidings plans in consultation with the Zonal Railways. In case of the existing sidings, which are to be disconnected from Indian Railways and will rejoin the DFC line, the approval of both the Zonal Railways and DFCCIL should be necessary.

3. For siding proposals for which RTC has been issued and DPR has been prepared and the sidings is to ultimately get connected to DFC alignment, no surface crossing with DFC network will be allowed for connecting them to IR network. However, these sidings may be served by the IR network in the interim period till such time DFC is commissioned. All these cases should be dealt by DFCCIL in consultation with the Zonal Railways on case to case basis taking into account the operational and technical aspects of each connectivity.

4. For the cases where the length of the connecting siding line becomes very long and unviable for siding owners because of the inter block distance on DFC network, DFCCIL needs to evolve a policy for providing connectivity in such cases by exploring the possibilities of (i) construction of an IBH (through a variation in the design build contract), if required (ii) facilitating the connectivity by permitting construction of siding on the land acquired for service road and (iii) by taking other policy measures to make the siding construction viable.

5. Where DFC is on a detour, for sidings taking-off from DFC, the user will apply to DFCCIL. DFCCIL will coordinate with the Zonal Raiways.

DFCCIL may prepare a policy in this regard for approval of the Board.

(Authority: Railway Board’s letter No. TC-I/2006/109/6 dated 11.12.2012)(Authority: CCM-NWR No. C-611/0 dated 11.12.2012)



Sub: - Haulage Charge recoverable for movement of containers in privately owned wagons

Ref: - Railway Board’s letter No. 2008/TT-III/73/8 dated 01.07.2008

Reference is drawn to Para 4 of Board’s letter No. 2008/TT-III/73/8 dt.

01.07.2008 regarding levy of Haulage Charge for movement of containers under the Hub & Spoke system.

The matter has been reviewed. In partial modification to Para 4 of Board’s letter under reference, it has been decided to prescribe the following guidelines for levy of Haulage Charge under the Hub & Spoke system.

General

56

i. At the time of first booking, the Container Train Operator (CTO) shall declare the list of containers that are to be transported to destinations through designated Hub(s). Stuffing/de-stuffing of such containers at any time during transit will not be permissible.

ii. RRs shall be generated for each leg of the movement separately. However, the linkage of RRs so generated for movements under the Hub & Spoke system shall be maintained for all in-transit containers all adjusted RRs will have reference to the previous RRs and this information shall be displayed on the container-wise Annexure sheets that form part of the RRs even presently.

iii. In the case of traffic booked under the Hub & Spoke system, diversion and / or rebooking shall not be permissible.

iv. Hubs can also be the final destination of any container.

v. Loaded containers that idle at a designated Hub during transit for a period of five days (which shall be a parametric value) or more would be treated as having been delivered short of destination. In case such containers are ultimately dispatched to their original destinations, through distance or telescopic benefit would not be applicable.

vi. The minimum/standard compositon prescribed for different types of stock would continue to be reckoned for the purposes of generating each RR and also for levy of Haulage Charge for a rake.

vii. Notified commodities moving in a container rake under Hub & Spoke system will be charged as per ‘Container Class Rate’. The benefit of levying Haulage Charge as per rates prescribed vide Rates Circular No. 32 of 2010 (and as amended from time to time) for 30 or less container in the rake will not be applicable.

viii. Other charges such as Punitive Charge, Development Surcharge and Terminal Access Charges applicable on a RR shall not be adjusted in subsequent RRs. These Charges will be calculated for point to point movements on a single RR basis.

Methodology for charging for single stack operation under Hub & Spoke system

A. In case of container transiting via just one transit Hub :

a. The RR issued at the point of origin (say, S1) would be for its movement to the designated Hub (say, H1). However, the stated destination of the container (say, S2) would be indicated on the RR (and / or the Annexure sheet referred to in para (ii) above).

b. At H1, the CTO would be required to surrender the RR that was issued at S1.

57

c. At the time of dispatch from H1 ‘freight already collected at S1’ would be deducted from the ‘freight chargeable for transportation of the container from S1 to S2 on through distance basis’ and ‘balance freight’ so arrived at would be collected.

d. The (balance freight) RR issued at H1 would reflect linkage to the original RR that was issued at S1.

B. In case of container booked through two transit Hubs:

a. The RR issued at the point of origin (say, S1) would be for its movement to the designated Hub (say, H1). However, the stated destination of the container (say, S2) would be indicated on the RR (and / or the Annexure sheet referred to in para (ii) above).

b. At H1, the CTO would be required to surrender the RR that was issued at S1.

c. At the time of dispatch from H1 a second RR would be issued; ‘freight chargeable for transportation of the container’ would be the ‘freight on through distance basis from S1 to H2’ minus the ‘freight already charged and collected at S1.

d. The RR issued at H1 would reflect linkage to the original RR that was issued at S1.

e. At H2, the CTO would again be required to surrender the RR that was issued at H1.

f. At the time of dispatch from H2, a third RR would be issued; the ‘chargeable freight for the transportation of the container from H2 to S2’ would be the ‘freight on through distance basis from S1 to S2’ minus the ‘freight on through distance basis from S1 to H2’.

g. The RR issued at H2 would reflect linkage to both the original RR that was issued at S1 as well as the other, intermediate RR that was issued at H1.

Methodology for charging for double stack operation under Hub & Spoke system

C. In case of containers carried on the lower/bottom deck, charging principles outlined in paras A and B, as the case may be, for single stack operations under Hub & Spoke system would apply.

D. In case of containers carried on the upper deck, freight for the distance over which the containers are transported on upper deck would be levied @50% of the freight chargeable in line with the principles outlined above in paras A and B, as the case may be, for single stack operations under Hub & Spoke system; for example, in case of the containers loaded on upper deck at H1 and transported as such to H2, 50% of the freight as computed under the provisions contained in para B(C) above would apply. The methodology prescribed in paras A and B above, in respect of issue

58

of RRs at S1 and H1 /H2 as well as their surrender at the intermediate hubs would also apply equally in the case of the double stack operations under the Hub & Spoke system.

These instructions will be effective from 1st January 2013.

This issues in consultation with Traffic Transportation Directorate and with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
