2)Next

two digits will indicate Owning Railway. Eg. SR -06, CR-01, 16 Zones are given numbers from 01 to 16 and 25 for CONCOR, 26 for Private owned wagons and 24 for wagons owned by defence.
3)Next two digits will indicate Year or Manufacture. eg.13 for 2013.
4)Next four digits will indicate Individual Wagon Number (0001 to 1000 for Departmental and 1001 to 9999 for Commercial purpose).
5)Last digit will be a Check digit.!!

Step тАФ 2 Multiply the sum by 3 to get 3S1
Step тАФ 3 Starting from the left, add all the Characters in the odd position.
S2=C1+C3+C5+C7+C9
Step тАФ 4 Add the sum of step 2 to the sum of step 3 to get S4=3S1+S2
Step тАФ 5 Round this total up to the next multiple of 10.
Step тАФ 6 The check digit is the number required to be added to round up to the next
multiple of 10..!!
