IRCTC: 100% refund on ticket cancellation policy....


Most of the people of the country have a deep relationship with indian Railways. Most of us definitely travel by train. Many times we plan the journey but suddenly due to some urgent work we have to change our plan. In such a situation, we have to cancel our ticket. Today we will know about the cancellation policy of the Railways. This policy is applicable to both offline and online ticket holders.


What is the cancellation policy of indian Railways?

We cancel both confirmed and waiting tickets. First let us understand the Confirm Ticket Cancellation Policy. The refund amount for a confirmed ticket is calculated on the basis of how far before the departure of the train you cancel the ticket. The refund policy of indian Railways for confirmed tickets is as follows.


Rs 240 + GST for AC First Class or Working Class

Rs 200 + GST for AC 2-Tier or First Class

Rs 180 + GST for AC 3-Tier, AC Chair Car, or AC 3-Economy

Rs 120 + GST for sleeper class

Rs 60 + GST for second class

When will the cancellation charge not be charged?

If you have to cancel the journey due to any reason and you want that you get the full fare, then there is also this facility but it is not free. For this you will have to pay a convenience fee. Let us understand about this fee with an example.

For example, the fare of Swarn Shatabdi Express (NDLS-CNB-LKO (Swarn Shatabdi Express) running between New delhi to kanpur is Rs 2,487 with 100% refund service while the same ticket without this service costs Rs 2,026. This means that you will have to pay Rs 461 only because if you cancel this ticket, then you will get full money.

Railways is getting huge profit:

In such a situation, it can be said that passengers are already charged a hefty charge for cancellation in the name of 100% refund. In such a situation, if 5 people will travel by this Shatabdi train, then they will have to pay for the tickets of about 6 people according to the actual cost of the train ticket. Similarly, in every mail, passenger, express, superfast premium trains of the country, a huge amount is collected in the name of giving 100% refund.
