How to book a train ticket online?
There are two ways to book
IRCTC train tickets. A train reservation can be made either online or offline, depending on your convenience. The online process is, however, a little more effortless since the whole process can be carried out at the convenience of a smart device and an internet connection. Use ixigo trains app for a quick, seamless transaction experience.
To book a train ticket on the app, all you have to do is select the origin city and the destination city, along with the date of travel and the class you’d like to travel in. You will be presented with a list of trains. You will also be able to check the
train seat availability of your train at this point. Choose whichever train suits your comfort, fill in the passenger details and proceed towards the payment gateway to complete your train booking.
PNR Status & Prediction
Ixigo trains app has a couple of smart features that can help you with all things related to your train ticket status. Our
PNR Prediction feature predicts the confirmation chances of your booked tickets. To make things easier, it also gives you a confirmation percentage of your ticket.
Train running late? No worries! Check the
Live NTES Running Status of your train through ixigo trains app. Enter your train details along with the date of journey for precise, live predictions of your train’s location.
What all documents are required for booking trains?
No documents or ID details have to be entered while booking trains on the app. The passengers will, however, have to carry an ID card with them during the journey. The Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) will ask for identification documents while checking the tickets of the passengers in the coach. He may also guide the passengers in occupying their accommodation. Please remember to carry the original versions of all the identification documents.
Following ID cards are considered valid by Indian railways:
Aadhar card, Voter photo identity card, Passport, Driving license, Pan Card, Central/State Government issued Photo Identity card, Student Identity Card with photograph, Nationalised Bank Passbook with photographs, Credit Cards with laminated photographs, Photo identity cards having serial number.
