Cancellation of Railway Ticket  
 
Normally 3 modes are used for ticket booking and hence there are corresponding modes to cancel the tickets; 
The ticket cancellation for reserved tickets booked at PRS Counters until now used to be tedious as one need to visit PRS Counter/Current 
Counters/ Special Counters at Railway Stations and stand in long queues. This was not only tedious/ inefficient but also causing financial 
loss to the reserved ticket holder.  Now the tickets booked at PRS Counters can also be cancelled online at IRCTC website without formally 
logging in their site.   
 
 
Online cancellation of confirmed/RAC/Waitlisted ticket booked at counter. 
Now the passengers have the facility of cancelling their train ticket (confirmed/RAC/wait-listed) booked from the Passenger Reservation 
System (PRS) counters. The options to cancel the ticket are through: 
  
Online Cancellation using internet/ smart phone through IRCTC website www.irctc.co.in 
  
139 (IVR) 
  
139 (SMS) 
 These options could be exercised only if: 
 Passenger has provided Mobile Number in the reservation form at the time of ticket booking. 
 Ticket is being cancelled in normal condition i.e. not in the condition of late running of the train or cancellation of train. 
 Passengers will be required to collect the refund of fare amount only at the journey commencing station or nearby satellite PRS loca-
tion.
