              I am not able to get SMS and when i am trying to print its showing nothing and when trying to get pnr status its not showing anything. sometimes it automatically takes the old website and when i am trying to find the booked history its not showing up anything. If IRCTC is not able to maintain its website then they need to give this project to some other company. The company which is currently handling IRCTC project is worst, without checking properly and tested it properly how can they release such a defect product to Indian Govt? Before releasing any product they should think twice, because its affecting the general people. If by chance they are travelling without any sms or printout they have to pay penalty, for that govt is not going to repay for that. And the other problems are I cannot cancel any ticket, because its no showing anything when i click on cancel ticket. I appeal that legal action should be taken for both IRCTC and the company who is handling the Project of IRCTC.

                    Hi, I booked a ticket from NDLS to BTI in Tatkal and had to pay more than double the price that from General. On thoroughly checking the same it came to my notice that there was a lot of difference in the base fare i.e. in general it was Rs. 535 but in Tatkal base fare changes to Rs. 692. Need proper details on the same. Regards Jatin Dhingra [protected]

                    Hi,

                    Even I too observed the same on IRCTC website. For a ticket from SC to EE, base fare for general ticket 225 and for tatkal it's showing as 265.
                    hi | booked a Tatkal ticket from rpar to dli in himachal express .and payed double of regular fare, after checking found that base fare is different[protected].
                    Hi Jatin,

                    Have you got any response from IRCTC about this anomaly in base fare?

                    Thanks
                    Tosheer.
                    Hello all,

                    I link given below explains the huge difference between the base fares of normal and tatkal tickets.

                    "http://www.ibnlive.com/news/india/tatkal-tickets-on-shorter-train-routes-h...

                    The nutshell of the whole article is that the minimum base fare of tatkal ticket has been increased for all trains.

                    Revised minimum distance(whose fare will be taken as base fare) under Tatkal scheme
                    Second Sitting: 100km
                    AC Chair Car, Executive Class: 250km
                    Sleeper, 3AC Economy Class, AC 3-Tier, AC 2-Tier: 500km

                    This surge in short-distance Tatkal reservation prices is because the Railways has amended its Tatkal rules, but hasn't even bothered to inform the people it impacts the most - the passengers.

                    I hope the above article helps.
                    Base fare is different for same train between same source and destination under normal and tatkal booking ?
                    I have sent many mails to indian railway and also tweeted over it but no response. If anyone having any info abt it please share

                          Hello Sir/Madam, This is to inform you that train no-02260 NDLS-SEALDAH premium express train is ridiculous! I just could not access the site www.irctc.co, in since 10th of June(this is a previous event) so there were no tickets available for the route ndls-kolkata on 14th of June So i saw this train and i saw a huge eye watering train fare but had no choice booked it. As I came to the coach i saw cockroaches, dirt, a soiled bedsheet, stinking blanket the list is endless. Even the food was no where near the premium status.I thought there might be a wifi at least but alas nope, i even had to ask for the newspaper many times! So this was the premium train which was again almost 6 hours late! To compensate we were told of "Mini Lunch"..! What the hell? Get this train off the tracks or give us more value for the money! U guys are getting more expensive than even air travel! And your site is worse even on 4g signal? PNR-[protected]

                                        Dear Team, I am sudhavamsikiran from bangalore. I have booked a ticket to travel for palnadu express(train number 12747) from Guntur to Begumpeta. On Dt. 18/08/2014. But unfortunately this booking details are not appearing in any of my history records where I checked with old transaction records also. When I checked PNR status in www.indianrail.gov.in website, its giving correct details of journey. So request you take action where this transaction can be appeared in my history records. Please do needful. Thanks Kiran
