[Resolved]  Indian Railways — Excess Fare Collected

Address:Andhra Pradesh

Hello,

I had booked a ticket from Yeshwantapur to Kazipet on 25/10/2011 and PNR no. is [protected]. But i did'nt carried the ticket. Im the person who is travelling in train. I had all my ID proofs. But the TC had collected Rs. 310 . For not carrying the ticket. Here I had a question.

For E-ticket , If the person is not carrying ticket you people will collect Rs. 50/- as fine . But in the case of counter ticket it was not the same.

It was not fair of collecting Rs. 310 from me. Please i need immediate response on this issue.

Thanks,

Rudra Yugesh.

I travelled by 1097 Ernakulam Express from Pune to Kanhangad on the 13th of February.
The reservation of ticket is:Transaction id: [protected] PNR No.[protected]
Class 3A Passengers: Anant Raman S 72/M Mrs Rajan A F/67

When I boarded the train at Pune station, I was not comfortable with the atmosphere in the 3A coach. The TTE arrived and I told him of the problem. He asked whether I would like to be upgraded to 2A and that there were two side berths only. I was agreeable to the upgradation. He marked berths 47 and 48 in A1 coach and asked me to proceed there. All this happened at 11.30 pm, close to midnight.

At about 11.45 pm, the TTE came and asked for Rs.1500. I was shocked and surprised because I thought it was a normal upgradation to vacant seats in 2A. Nevertheless, it was not prepared for an argument at midnight and I was too tired and sleepy. I gave him the money.

He came back ten minutes later and gave me a receipt and told me that he will give me the balance. Then he did not come. Next morning I found a new TTE and I was told that there was change of duty at Miraj at about 5 in the morning. There disappeared my balance money!

Now comes to the calculation part. The TTE had calculated difference in fare and excess fare etc and had given receipt for Rs.900. I do not know how he came to such a figure. According to me:

Rs.1219 is the fare I had paid for the berths in 3A vide the above PNR [protected]
Rs. 900 is the excess collected from me vide receipt No.B620231 dated 13.2.2010 towards dif ference in fare
Rs.2119 is the total paid
Rs.1667 is the fare for the two o[censored]s in 2A according to the figure available in internet
Rs.452 is therefore the amount excess collected from me and so due to me from the Railways
Rs.600 is the amount due to me from the TTE

Is there any way I can get the above amounts? I
