IRCTC may suspend cooked meals due to LPG shortage

pre-market1 source ↓written by the desknot a recommendation

The ongoing conflict in West Asia is causing a shortage of LPG in India, prompting the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) to consider suspending cooked meal services on trains. This disruption may lead to refunds for passengers as the government diverts natural gas supplies to priority sectors. Traders should monitor potential impacts on IRCTC's operations and revenue.
