But Sir, are the RPF action legally tenable? Is there any bar on carrying products in carton box? Could someone elaborate on the baggage rules?

TV is not included in personal baggage list in IR, it attracts special rate.

Probably yes...make sure that u have the original bill receipt to convey that you are not carrying it for the purpose of selling it. Bill's date ensures that it is an old set & hence for personal use only.Or manage a repair bill to prove it old and for personal use.and tide with big bed sheet to avoid attention and to save space.

and this is official version(see full text at-trainenquiry.com/StaticContent/Railway_Amnities/SC_R/
"You are allowed to carry luggage alongwith with you, in your compartment, at no extra cost, if it does not exceed the free allowance, However, you should avoid carrying offensive, explosive and dangerous articles.
Prams, Umbrellas, TV sets, Laptop computers and Wheel Chairs for handicapped passengers are permitted within Free allowance and can be carried

in person.
Free allowance is not admissible on articles like cycles, scooters etc. Modified Scooter and Motorised Tri-wheeler moped belonging to Orthopaedically Handicapped Persons may be booked in Brake-van, accommodation permitting, (not in compartment) at 75% concession in charges provided that it is carried by the same train in which the concerned Orthopaedically Handicapped Person is travelling, on the production of the certificate from Government Doctor.
Please approach the Luggage Booking Office at least 30 minutes prior to the departure of train in order to have your luggage weighed by the Railway authorities".
