Ministry of Railways has now made a fourfold increase in the charges for all goods months after it hiked wagon registration charges of wheat and iron ore to curb exports. The registration charges to book a wagon have been revised to Rs 6,000 per wagon, as against Rs 1,500 earlier. Moreover, the charge for booking an entire rake, or goods train, has been revised to Rs 100,000 from the earlier Rs 50,000. The wagon registration fee is a subset of total freight charges and the hikes will not have any significant impact on the overall freight rates. The new policy is only to ensure that non-serious transporters don’t choke the wagon supply by booking more than they need.
