Indian Railways has also partnered with Switz Foods, Only Alibaba, Haldiram, Bikanerwala, Nirula’s and Pizza Hut. However, passengers travelling from Ludhiana to Delhi by Shatabdi will only be able to avail food from Domino’s, Gyan Vegetarian and a restaurant called Babbi Fish and Chicken at Ludhiana. This is because KFC and McDonald’s are yet to start delivery at stations that come under the purview of the Northern Railways’ Ferozepur division.

In June 2016, Indian Railways had conducted a 45-day trial on the Patna Rajdhani, Delhi-Mumbai August Kranti Rajdhani, Pune-Secunderabad Shatabdi and Howrah-Puri Shatabdi. Under the new scheme, the payment can be made online or at the time of delivery.
