Hi,
I have been using irctc.co.in for booking railway tickets since it was launched 3 yrs ago....and since then I have never visited any tout or railway reservation counter....
This website is like a boon to the indian railway passenger....
Why I like irctc :
1: irctc provides delivery in more than 50 locations in the country in less than 3 days...and if you are in a city where they have their office...it takes only 24 hrs...
2: There are about 15 different payment options including credit cards, direct debits from bank a/cs.
3: One can get the reservation status while he is booking the ticket.
4: The site sends email alerts for the reservation till you board the train.
5: It charges on the basis of per ticket and not per person...
6: With every ticket, we receive discount coupons to various hotel, travel destinations...
This site has become very popular and has grown into Asias biggest e-commerce site..it has been doing transactions worth more than 5 lakh Rs a day...and more than 2600 reservations a day...
This site has been a big success...and helpful to commuters of Indian railways..
