रेल नीर प्लांट बंद:5 साल में 90 करोड़ का कारोबार, 13.40 करोड़ रु. जल कर बकाया

Due to negligence by IRCTC officials, the Sirgitti Rail Neer plant, which had a turnover exceeding ₹90 crore, shut down on December 1st. This plant supplied bottled water to Bilaspur, Raipur, Durg, Jharsuguda, Ranchi, and Dhanbad. A ₹13.40 crore water tax debt to the Chhattisgarh government remains unpaid. ...

IRCTC officials refuse to comment on the plant's future or who will pay the debt, raising suspicions of favoritism towards private companies. The plant, established in March 2017 at a cost of ₹10 crore, supplied bottled water to major stations and trains. Its popularity stemmed from its ₹15 price point compared to other brands' ₹20. The Kolkata-based contractor, who had the contract to run the plant, informed IRCTC in October that the plant would close on December 1st due to an unpaid water tax of ₹13.40 crore accumulated over five years, preventing them from bidding on a new contract. IRCTC failed to pay water tax since January 2020. The initial water tax was ₹4.38 per 1000 liters, but was increased to ₹375 and later reduced to ₹250. The plant sold an average of 35,000-40,000 bottles daily, generating over ₹90 crore in revenue over five years. At closure, approximately 10,000 bottles remained.

IRCTC ke officers ki laaparwahi ki wajah se, 90 crore se zyada ka business karne wala Sirgitti Rail Neer plant, 1 December se band ho gaya hai. Yeh plant Bilaspur, Raipur, Durg, Jharsuguda, Ranchi aur Dhanbad jaise stations mein pani supply karta tha. Chhatisgarh government par 13.40 crore rupees ka pani...

ka tax bhi baaki hai. IRCTC ke officers plant ke future ya paise kaun pay karega, iske jawab dene se bach rahe hain, jisse private companies ko fayda pahunchane ki saazish ka shak ho raha hai. March 2017 mein 10 crore ki lagat se banaya gaya yeh plant, bade stations aur trains mein pani supply karta tha. Iski zyada demand iske 15 rupees ke price ki wajah se thi. Kolkata ki ek company ko plant chalane ka contract diya gaya tha, usne October mein hi inform kiya ki 1 December se plant band hoga, kyunki paanch saal mein 13.40 crore ka water tax baaki tha. Plant rozana average 35,000-40,000 bottles bechta tha, jisse paanch saal mein 90 crore se zyada ka business hua. Plant band hone par sirf 10,000 bottles baaki the.
