Facilities Offered by IRCTC

IRCTC is well known for bringing significant changes in the face of Indian railway tourism system including ticketing and catering. It offers the services of rail ticket booking through Internet on its website, in addition to mobile phones via GPRS or SMS to the advantage of the passengers. Besides this, online cancellation or modification is also made available. The daily travelers of Mumbai's suburban railway can also enjoy benefits of booking the season tickets from IRCTC website. IRCTC has newly started a program called "Shubh Yatra" for the passengers who travel on regular basis. IRCTC also arranges budget and plush package tours for domestic and foreign tourists.

Online PNR status and seat availability queries can be fetched from the computerized reservation applications on the IRCTC website itself. However, Indian Railways department has launched a new phone number for PNR status enquiry, which is an absolutely toll-free service that works all over India including small villages and towns. You just need to call '139' from your BSNL/MTNL landlines or from any mobile telecom operator enabled phones, follow the instructions and within no time, you get to know the required PNR Status or other information. Isn’t railway ticket booking an easy affair?
