A query to members.
Is there any predefined formula/algorithm devised by railways to decide as to how may seats should be allocated for GL quota, RL,PQWL,RS,Tatkal etc?
Does it depend on the train/route and number of stops?
Isn't it a complex exercise if done for each train separately since the number of stops may vary from train to train ?

I think the divisions play a role here. Though I'm not sure, I think its their inputs that decides on those ISSUES. Tatkal quota is fixed thru a standard rule.
There is no predefined algorithm.
When a new train is announced, the rake maintenance and bulk profit share is assigned to a railway zone which is called as home zone.
Now RB give power to this home zone to decide till which station they wish to provide GNWL quota and by how much seats (Number of seats depends upon total number coaches for that class).

I think its not only home zone decission done by the charting div
The primary quota seat allocation is done by Home Zone only, but yes sometimes secondary zone and adjacent running zone also gives requests and suggestion for seats allocations.
And the station where chart will be prepared is decided by starting zone (base zone) only.
