Dear Sir,
I had cancelled my 3rd AC Confirmed Ticket on 1st Sep 2016 at 00:51 AM (Traveling Date was 12th Sep 2016 with four passenger ie 2 adults and 2 Sr. Citizen ) .
There is a massive cut in the refund amount. The charges paid to IRCTC was Rs. 4225/- but the refund amount was only Rs. 3465 / – . Total deducted amount is Rs. 760/- but as per rule it must be Rs. 180 per passenger hence Rs. 720 / – . So please explain us that what is the rest money. Please note that I have not included the bank charges for the transaction .
Why is there such a big difference in the refund amount?
Please check the following PNR and explain me that why there is difference between the IRCTC cancellation rules and actual facts.

Dear Sir/Madam
My query is regarding wrong claculation of cancellation charger by IRCTS site.
I have booked a ticket for 25.Jun.2016 – PNR no. 4120435759, From : SC To: NK, Class: Sleeper Class, Quota : General. This was for 2 passengers of which one is Senior Citizen & the booking fare was Rs. 595.00.
I Canceled this ticket on 14.Jun.2016 (12 days before journy) and have correctly selected both the passengers, for this the IRCTC site has canceled the ticket with generated refund of Rs. 355.0 only.
This is alomost 57% of the original cost.
What shoudl I do now ? What is the procedure to get the remianing refund amount ?
I am a regular user this is the first time such a issue has happend.
I am now feeling that IRCTC misfunctionaing is cheating normal public.
I have very high hope that will get a reply to my query please help.
Railway Experts says
Dear Ghufran,
Its correct here are the details:
Total Fare you paid = Rs. 595
Cancellation charges per passenger is Rs.120 (as mentioned in above post for SL)
For Two passenger = 120*2 = Rs. 240 as Cancellation charges
Refunded amount = 595-240 = Rs. 355
Which is refunded to you.

No body can predict the PNR status of your tickets correctly.
You can do two things:

2)If other tickets gets confirmed then cancel Tatakl ticket (it will cost 65 Rs. per passenger as cancellation charge).
Please note:
– If all the tickets are e-Ticket and if it remains in waiting list after chart preparation then it will become Invalid because e-tickets in waiting list gets cancelled automatically.

rgds,

– If both gets confirmed then cancel normal tickets you will get some amount refund (only if you cancel before 4 hours then 50% will be refunded) because confirmed tatkal ticket can not be cancelled.

Thanks once again for the information.
S.GOPIKRISHNAN says
If the tickets are partially cancelled, whether a new print out of the tickets is required to be taken or the old one before cancellation is valid.
Railway Experts says
– If it is eTicket – Old ticket is valid one you can carry that
– If it is Counter ticket then you will have to go to the railway station and fill the cancellation form for partially cancellation and they will provide you New ticket. In this case OLD ticket + NEW ticket both will be valid as PNR will be same.
But in case if they provide you new ticket with new PNR number on it then New ticket will only be considered as Valid one.
Harshita says
my RAC 6 …train departure time – 10 30 pm today….if i cancel now what will be the cancellation charges?
As my ticket is in RAC will it automatically be cancel when chart is prepared?

for cancellation upto 3 hours of the actual departure
of the train irrespective of distance, full refund of fare will be
given, after deducting the clerk age charge per passenger. Clerk age charges are mentioned in above post please refer.
2. No, RAC tickets will not be cancelled automatically. Passengers having ticket in RAC status are considered having valid tickets. This is applicable to both tickets booked online (e-ticket) and tickets booked over the counter (PRS ticket). They are allowed to travel in train in such cases.

Arka Ghosh says
I have booked Ticket in Tatkal Quota via internet my PNR Status is CKWL 62,Which is less likely to be confirmed.
How long should i wait before canceling it?
Is there chance for the confirmation?
How much will refunded if cancellation is being done?
Ankit says
1. You can wait until final chart preparation time because eTicket will automatically be cancelled if it is in Waiting list.
2. The first thing is Confirmation is totally depends on the Class of the ticket. If you have booked AC ticket in tatkal quota then i’d say 99% it will not be confirmed.
3. Cancellation charges are mentioned in above post respective to the class of the ticket. Please go through it once
Arka Ghosh says
Thank You Ankit!
Its really amazing that you are taking out your personal time for people who are perplexed about the schemes…
I have booked eticket for SL class with Current status CKWL 62. My train is Howrah Yesvantpur Express.
What are the chances of ticket getting confirmed?
If not confirmed and ticket is cancelled automatically, when will i be expecting my refund?

– Its less likely to be confirmed.
The good way of knowing it is to refer below url and enter your PNR for predictive PNR Status.
http://indiarailinfo.com/pnr
– If it gets cancelled automatically then the amount refund process will take 5-7 working days.
Thanks.

Dileep says
I have booked 3AC tickets for East Coast Express for March 26, 2016. One ticket is confirmed and other one status is PQWL/3. I’m not sure whether the ticket will get confirmed but if i would like to cancel my ticket today what are the deduction charges for non confirmed ticket. Please suggest.
JIJO C.A. says
If tatkal ticket is not confirmed then the cancellation charges shall be minimum restrictedt to the service charges??? Kinly consider the request. Loss of person for arranging other ways of transport may occure more costly. So goverment should give good convenience for people not for to steel money from public and allow to eat for the bad politician….
Ankit says
Dear Jijo,
I am 100% agree with your issue. I also faced the same when me and my sister went to the railways station with waiting listed tatkal ticket and it could not get confirmed. We wasted around 600rs of Auto Riksha as PUNE city is little costly.
I already forwarded your complain to Indian Railways.
From your side please file your complain by filling the below form:

manjula says
i have booked a tatkal ticket which is confirmed but i need to cancel it is that confirmed tatkal ticket cancelled will get refund?pls let me knw
Ankit says
No refund on Tatkal Ticket cancellation.
But the tips is here:
If you really dont want to travel then do not cancel ticket now because any how you are not going to get any refund.
Tips:
1. Lets wait for train to come to your railway station. If train is late more than 30 minutes then immediately file tdr with reason “Train is Late” in this case you will get refund (70-100%)
2. Let train come to your station and go. After one hour from train departed, file the TDR with reason “Train Coach Seat Was Damaged” in this case if it gets approved then you might get refund.

Dharmendra Kumar says
Hi,
I have booked 2 tickets of 3rd AC from BDTS to MTJ, RS.2977 has been deducted from my Axis Bank account including Service and Bank charges.
Now today i have canceled both tickets by IRCTC and got only Rs 2540 in my account.
Calcualtion:
3rd AC can charge 180*2=360, so 2977-360 = Rs. 2617 should refund in my account.
Why as much deduction, can you please explain?
Please advise
Ankit says
Hello Dharmendra,
There is a difference amount of 77 rs i can see as deducted 437 abut it should be 360
437-360 = 77 Deducted more as i can see.

I had booked 3 tickets ( 2 Senior citizens + 1 Adult) and later canceled 1 ticket of senior Citizen before 1 week of schedule of train.

Refund Received – Rs 165
Is this refund correct? If not how to get correct refund amount.

The refunded amount is incorrect. Can you tell me the fare of each person? Because i am believing there is a discount of Senior citizen ticket.

S k jain says
I have cancelled a 3 tier ac confirmed ticket booked for 6 March 2016 . Subsequently I cancelled it and ₹ 290 were deducted from it . This is exorbitant for an e ticket . On one side railways want to popularise e ticketing and other side why penalise even Sr. Citizen for using e ticketing through authorised travel booking agent. Prof s k jain

Ankit says
Hello Akshay,
If eTicket:
You can wait until chart is prepared. After chart preparation if your ticket is still in waiting list then it will be cancelled automatically.
If Counter ticket:
Cancel it after chart preparation. But it will not be cancelled automatically, you need to go to the railways station for cancellation.
A flat Rs. 60/Per person amount as cancellation of waiting list ticket will charged.
Akshay says
What if the WL tickets iis comnfirmed SL class during chart preparation and I want to cancel it .. How much refund oi will get
Railway Experts says
Between 48 hours and 12 hours before leave time, 25% of the total fare is deducted
Between 12 hours and 4 hours before train departure 50% of the total fare is deducted.
If less than 4 hours is remaining in train departure and chart is prepared, then NO REFUND is given on cancellation of confirmed tickets.
In your case NO Refund if your boarding station is same as train source station and chart is prepared before 4 hours from train departure time from source station.
VIJAY says
I HAVE CANCELLED A SINGLE SLEEPER TICKET FOR TWO SENIOR CITIZEN THREE DAYS BEFORE THE DEPARTURE WHICH WAS BOOKED AT COST Rs. 464.00 AND NOW I GOT REFUND OF Rs. 200.OO ONLY.HOW
Ankit says
Per passenger = Rs. 120
For Two Passenger in your case = 120*2 = 240 Rs.
464-240 = 224 Rs.
224 Rs. you should have got.
Did you include Your IRCTC Service Charge and Bank charges in Rs. 464? If yes then 200 is correct refund amount.
govind choduahry says
i was booked five ticket 2 siner citizen ticket what is charge of cancilattion charge

Ankit Suhane says
Dear Chandan,
If it is separate 5 tickets?
Or
One ticket with 5 person?
Regards,
Ankit
Ankit Suhane says
Ticket cancellation charges in irctc 2016 has been increased too much and its affecting many middle class people having AC ticket and want to cancel it.
IRCTC should really thinks about e ticket cancellation charges.
Narendra Arora says
Its true Ankit. Government of India does not allow private players to enter in railways and then fleeces its nationals, in particular middle and lower middle class, by arbitrary increase in fare/charges. A middle class Indian national does not have any alternate for long distances hence have no escape from this arbitrariness. Why Indian Railways cannot be booked under “The Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices Act, 1969”?
gaurav says
With all due respect, charges of trains is still 10 times cheaper than buses.So why complaining if they are increasing the price in order to provide better facilities. Please get rid of the mentality of freebies. It will hurt us in long run.
Ankit says
Agreed! But the comfort ness what you will get in AC buses you can never get in Trains.
The food quality is still worst in trains with high price.
What you say?
Scindia M S says

we are agroup of people travelling with congirmed reservation. but on opts out and we add a new person in our group
with a wait listed tkt . we do not cancel the reservation of the person who opts out. can the waitlisted passenger
trvel on the same berth with wait listed tkt
Ankit Suhane says
The added new person is having ‘Online Waitlisted eticket’ or ‘Waitlisted Counter ticket’ ?
– If he is having eticket and it is in waiting list even after chart preparation then it will be invalit.
– If he has counter ticket in and it is in waiting list then no worry, it is valid one during entire journey and he can surely travel.

Hi,
For I-Ticket (TDR) has to be filed within 30 days from the date of scheduled travel.
is it same for E-ticket.
I booked E-ticket but the train itself got cancelled and I was under impression that money will be refunded to my account by virtue of E-ticket , so didn’t do any thing.
Now it is more than month over, is it possible to file a TDR now.. Thanks in advance
