Cost of Periodic Overhaul(POH)of one coach every 12 months.

It costs the Indian Railways about 3-4 lakh Rupees for POH of each coach.
In a POH, the broken parts are repaired, light bulbs/tubes replaced, torn seats replaced, suspension overhauled, batteries replaced, wiring repaired if needed, additional charging plug points provided and the coach is repainted.
