Ratings and reviews

I have been using this application for many years. Never get satisfied with its operations. The new errors come like a new season. never ending errors. now it is getting logged out when the payment is about to succeed and says the transaction failed. nearly more than 15 transactions failed in the last week. Money will be deducted for a failed transaction and there is a refund. what's the use?

Lots of ad banners. Sometimes ad banners don't let you do anything but close the app and start over again. Pathetic! Hard to believe this is IRCTC official app meant for ticket booking. Day by day, they are making the app a junk, adding unnecessary features that have nothing to do with rail. Keep it focused, simple, relevant and easy to use.

Payment Successful, but Booking Failed – Every Time During Tatkal This has become a recurring issue. The payment gets deducted instantly, but the ticket booking fails, leaving me waiting for a refund while my travel plans remain uncertain. During every Tatkal booking window, the app either shows "Could not load due to high load" or fails to confirm the booking even after a successful payment. If the platform expects such heavy traffic every day, it should be built to handle it.
