IRCTC Simplifies Online Train Ticket Cancellation Process

IRCTC Simplifies Online Train Ticket Cancellation Process

Imagine you bought a train ticket online.

Now, the Indian Railways (IRCTC) has made it easier to cancel these tickets.

You can cancel them on the website or app, both before and sometimes even after they prepare the list of passengers for the train.

How much money you get back depends on when you cancel.

If you cancel early, you get more back.

If the train itself gets cancelled, you get all your money back.

However, special tickets called 'Tatkal' tickets don't get refunds if you cancel them, but other tickets do.
