This is unfair trade practice. Railways must refund entire amount including service charge and bank charge in case of waitlisted ticket not confirmed on chart preparation as well as when a train is cancelled.

Taking this further, even interest becomes payable on the paid amount since most tickets are booked several days (or months) in advance of travel.
