The Story in Brief
IRCTC management estimates that 25% to 30% of passengers with prepaid train meals are opting out, NDTV Profit reports. The company has not yet confirmed the figure, making it an early estimate rather than verified data.
The report does not provide the number of bookings covered, the period assessed or the reasons passengers are declining meals. A confirmed share, along with the scale of refunds or unused meals, would be needed to judge the trend accurately.
The Indian Opinion
The estimate should not be treated as proof that prepaid meals are widely unpopular. Without a confirmed sample, time period or explanation for opting out, both claims of a major passenger shift and dismissals of the trend are premature. IRCTC should publish the booking data and define how it counts an opt-out. The key figure to watch is the verified share across a full reporting period.
