Indian Railways has recently updated its Tatkal ticket booking timings to enhance passenger convenience and reduce congestion during high-demand periods. Here's the new schedule:
Tatkal Booking Opening Times: For AC Class (1A, 2A, 3A): The Tatkal booking window for AC classes will now open at 10:00 AM on the day before the train's scheduled departure.
For Sleeper Class: The Tatkal booking window for Sleeper Class tickets will open at 11:00 AM.
Advance Booking Window: The booking window for Tatkal tickets will continue to be available one day prior to the journey date, i.e., bookings open the day before departure at the prescribed times.
Payment and Confirmation: As before, Tatkal tickets can be booked through the IRCTC website, mobile app, or at the reservation counter. It’s advisable to complete the booking quickly due to high demand.
New Restrictions and Rules: The new timings aim to streamline the booking process and make tickets available at more convenient hours. Passengers are advised to book tickets early as Tatkal quotas tend to fill up quickly.
These changes aim to improve the overall Tatkal ticketing system and ensure smoother operations during peak travel periods. Make sure to be ready at the specified times to secure your tickets!
