This work of art is not new, during my last journey in Kalka back in January, 2019, the bottle holders were placed similarly. It's quite convenient for upper berths, given the bottle doesn't fall down.
Back then only one rake was Utkrisht, and that was the only time I hoped and was happy to get a Utkrisht rake. The train arrived DDU half an hour late, was diverted via the mainline, and still managed to reach HWH before 9am.
