IRCTC is increasing capacity at its existing bottled-water plants and considering four new sites as demand for Rail Neer continues to exceed supply, NDTV Profit reports. The move comes as the railway catering company has yet to secure a partnership with a beverage brand. The expansion is therefore only partly complete. IRCTC is adding output through its current facilities while assessing locations for further plants, but the supply gap remains. The report does not provide timelines for the new sites or details of any potential brand partnership.
The claim that more plants alone will quickly solve Rail Neer’s shortages is premature. So is treating the absent beverage partnership as proof that IRCTC’s plan has failed. The practical test is simpler: whether existing plants and the four proposed sites together can consistently match passenger demand, and by when. IRCTC should publish those capacity and commissioning targets.
