Difference Between FPS Stock and Ration Card Transaction
Many people get confused between FPS stock and ration card transaction. Both are different.
FPS stock shows how much ration is available at the Fair Price Shop.
Ration card transaction shows whether ration has been issued to your card or not.

So, before visiting, check FPS stock. After collecting ration, you can check your ration card transaction details.
