Automatic refund of confirmed/ Rac e-tickets on cancellation of trains becomes effective

Ministry of Railways has decided to grant automatic refund of Confirmed/RAC e-tickets on cancellation of trains similar to waitlisted e-tickets.

There shall not be any requirement for cancellation/filing of TDR (Ticket Deposit Receipt) for refund of e-tickets in case of cancellation of trains. This has become effective with effect from July 13.

However, in case of cancellation of trains, PRS (Passenger Reservation System) counter ticket shall continue to be refunded across the reservation counter as per the existing provisions.
