Achievements of IRCTC of Indian Railways

If you do not know about the achievements of IRCTC of Indian Railways as a regular traveler by train, you are actually not an informed traveler in the true sense of the term. Besides being the largest and the fastest growing e-commerce website in the Asia-Pacific region with lakhs of registered users, it has won numerous awards. Indian Railways has only made ticketing simpler introducing online ticketing services with the formation of its subsidiary IRCTC. Few of the awards won by IRCTC worth mentioning are National Tourism Award of Excellence, National award for E-Governance, Retail Excellence Award, Mini Ratna Category-1, Genius of the Web Award, and more.

Booking of train tickets at the IRCTC website is easy. Just follow the steps and proceed. This facility was also available at the Indian Railways corporate site for some time but stopped for the time being. To buy train tickets at IRCTC, you have to get registered at its site. If you enter your mobile number, you can get SMS alerts related to your train tickets. You can also enjoy budget and luxury package tours covering the length and breadth of the country. Complete information about the tourism packages can be accessed at IRCTC site.
