OFFICE MEMORANDUM
The undersigned is directed to say that several references are received by this
Department from various Ministry/ Departments seeking clarification regarding
admissibility of travel by Premium Trains run by Indian Railways while availing of LTC.
2. The matter has been examined in consultation with Department of Expenditure,
Ministry of Finance and it has been decided that travel by Premium Trains is not
permissible on LTC. Hence, the fare charged by the Indian Railways for the journey(s)
performed by Premium trains shall not be reimbursable for the purpose of LTC. Cases
where LTC travel in such Premium Trains has already been undertaken by the Central
Government Employees, the train fare may be reimbursed restricting it to the
admissible normal fare for the entitled class of train travel or the actual fare paid,
whichever is less.
