How to Get Army Canteen Card Ex-Serviceman

Obtaining an Army Canteen Card as an Ex-Serviceman may require specific steps. In case of losing the old card, it is necessary to pay a penalty to get a new Smart Card. The loss of a Canteen Smart Card (either for groceries or liquor) will result in levied penalties, which will be added to the costs of obtaining the new Smart Card. The penalty amount will be included in the URC profit. If an individual loses the Smart Card for the first time, they will be charged Rs. 500 for both liquor and grocery cards. However, if this happens for the second or subsequent times, the penalty will increase to Rs. 1000 for both types of cards. The Chairman of the URC can exempt the penalty based on the genuineness of the loss in exceptional cases.
