No.2013/TG-I/12/2/DDQ

New Delhi, dated: 31.01.2019

The Chief Commercial Managers,
All Zonal Railways.

(Addendum to Commercial Circular No. 12 of 2015)

Sub: Delegation of Power to Earmark/Enhance Defence Department Quota (DDQ).

Ref: This office letters of even number dated 05.03.2015 (Commercial Circular No. 12 of 2015) and dated 30.11.2016 (Commercial Circular No. 64 of 2016)

Please refer to para 3(i) of this office letter dated 05.03.2015 referred to above wherein it was advised that if the utilization in general quota during the previous financial year is more than 90%, no Defence Department Quota should be earmarked. On receipt of references from defence department, the matter has been reviewed and it has been decided that although ideally no DDQ should be earmarked in the trains whose utilisation is more than 90%, however, keeping in view the movement of defence personnel, zonal railways can earmark DDQ in these trains also. This should, however, be done with the personal approval of Principal Chief Commercial Manager of the zonal railway concerned.

2. Necessary instructions in this regard may be issued to all concerned.

(i) If the utilisation in general quota during the previous financial year has been more than 90%, no DD quota should be earmarked

(ii) If the utilisation is less than 90% dining the previous financial year, the Railways may take a decision to earmark Defence Deptt Quota in such a way that it should not adversely affect the availability of general reservation quota.
