IRCTC.co.in website gets a facelift

On the new irctc.co.in, a user does not require log-in credentials to search for trains, doing away with a major barrier for smooth user experience.

The new features of irctc.co.in are enumerated as follows:

*While ticket booking, a separate card for each passenger has been provided wherein user can fill details as per passenger requirements. Pre-filled particulars will ensure quick booking experience.

*The user can manage the payment options by marking six banks as preferred banks under My profile section. On completion of payment, the details of booking shall be displayed in a user-friendly manner.

*There are a number of additional features such as filters on ‘My Transactions’ where user can view booked tickets based on journey date, booking date, upcoming journey and completed journey.

*User can perform multiple activities through booked history like cancellation, printing, request for SMS, selection of alternative train by exercising the option of ‘Vikalp’ and changing of boarding point if required. User help links have been provided across all pages of website.
