Yo guys, listen up! Got some important info about catering on Indian Railways:

1. So, if you wanna know all the deets about the catering providers on each train, their contract period, cost, and whatnot, check out this link: click here

P.S: Some trains might not be on this list and they may have E-Catering by IRCTC themselves, so just a heads up.

2. Now, here's the link where you can find the rates of the food items for each category of trains. Keep it handy so you don't get ripped off: click here

By the way, I was shocked to see the crazy license fees charged by IRCTC. Like, for example, the total license fees for catering services on the 12051 and 12052 CSMT MAO CSMT Janshatabdi Express is a whopping 33,28,780 (almost 33.5 Lakhs) with a security deposit of 99,863 (almost 1 Lakh). Damn! That's like 22,000 bucks per day and 11,000 bucks per trip. And guess how I found out? Through this awesome thing called a Right To Information (RTI) Request. Pretty cool, huh?
