Railways introduced New Rules For Ticket Cancellation

Posted on: 26/Jun/2013 12:06:11 PM
Rail ticket refund rules become strict with  effective from July 1.You can no longer cancel a train ticket 24 hours before your journey and still claim a full refund. 

The railways said it had also reduced the time wherein a passenger could claim back 75 per cent of the booking amount. For this, passengers will now need to cancel tickets six hours prior to departure, two hours fewer than earlier.

Justifying the revision, the railway ministry said: "Railway Passengers (cancellation of ticket and refund of fare) Rules, 1998, have not been substantially revised in the last 15 years, during which a large number of changes have taken place in the ticketing system of Indian Railways."
