Railways claims that it will take much less time to buy tickets in the new system.
Indian Railways provides regular facilities to make it easier for passengers to buy tickets online. This time it has brought a new change in the ticketing rules. As a result of this change, it will be easier to buy a ticket, but if you cancel a ticket, you will get a refund immediately. If the ticket is not confirmed on the waiting list or is deducted for any other reason, it will be refunded almost immediately. This facility has already been added on the website of Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC). Railways claims that it will take much less time to buy tickets in the new system.
In the new system, all the basic rules of ticketing remain the same. It’s time for a change in ticket prices. IRCTC-ipay has been added to the payment option on the website. Here customers can enter their debit card or UPI bank account details. You have to pay it only once. You will not have to pay for it in future. If you buy tickets using IRCTC-IP, then the old information will come in handy. As a result, the time and effort of the passengers will be saved.
IRCTC-IP will also provide additional benefits like tickets in case of cancellation of tickets. Keep in mind that not only train but also air and bus tickets can be purchased from IRCTC website. IRCTC had given the opportunity to buy bus tickets in January last year.
It is a well known fact that if the ticket is struck off from the online waiting list and the same is not confirmed, the ticket will be cancelled. In such a situation, the ticket money is going to go to the passenger’s bank account. But it takes a few days. Now if you buy tickets using IRCTC-IP then that is not a problem. The money will be credited to the account immediately, IRCTC said. The train will refund the ticket even if the tour is canceled if the train is late. In all cases he will have the opportunity to return immediately.
