What the app is and who it is for

Train Ticket Booking, Status is an Android app for booking tickets on Indian Railways trains through IRCTC, the government railway booking system. The developer, redBus, a MakeMyTrip company, describes it as an IRCTC authorised booking app that covers a journey from booking to boarding.

The listing says the app brings train booking together with live running status, PNR enquiry, train schedules, coach position and real-time updates on a train. It is aimed at people who travel by train in India and who want those tasks in one app rather than several. The developer also lists bus, hotel and metro bookings as available.

Booking uses an IRCTC account, so a user needs an IRCTC ID and password to complete a train ticket purchase.

Booking IRCTC train tickets step by step

A search takes a source station, a destination and a journey date. The app then lists trains so a user can compare classes, timings and fares before choosing one. The listing names Vande Bharat, Tejas, Rajdhani, Shatabdi and Duronto Express among the trains it covers.

To book, the user signs in with an IRCTC ID, enters passenger details, picks a payment option and confirms with the IRCTC password. The developer says the e-ticket is sent by email and SMS once payment is complete.

The listing also advertises Tatkal booking for IRCTC trains and a promotional code, REDRAILNEW, for up to ₹300 off a first train booking.

Waitlist refunds and free cancellation

The app offers waitlist ticket confirmation prediction, which the developer lists as a way to see how a waitlisted ticket may move. Its Alternate Trip feature is described as giving either a confirmed ticket or a 3X refund on a waitlisted booking.

A user who selects Free Cancellation during booking is told by the developer that a cancelled ticket is refunded in full and immediately. The listing says this applies to train tickets booked with that option.

The app's FAQ says cancellation of an IRCTC ticket can also be done by logging in to IRCTC, opening My Account, then Booked Ticket History, and choosing Cancel Ticket for the passenger concerned.

Checking PNR status and live train running status

The PNR status check shows a passenger's booking details, chart preparation updates, and the boarding station, platform number, and arrival and departure times. The listing says it also gives directions to the boarding station.

Live train running status is searched by train number or name. The developer says it shows where the train is now, estimated arrival and departure times, expected delays and coach position. The listing says live status is available even offline.

The FAQ on the listing says a user enters the train number or name and taps check status to see these details.

Train schedules, connecting trains and travel classes

The train schedule search takes a train number or name and a travel date. The developer says it shows departure and arrival times, halt stations and expected platform numbers.

If a direct train is waitlisted or unavailable, the connecting trains feature looks for trains on the same route, according to the listing.

The listing sets out the classes on long-distance trains. AC classes are 1A, 2A, 3A and 3E, with bedding and enclosed berths. Non-AC classes are Sleeper and 2S. The listing notes that class availability varies by train.

RAY and the other travel bookings

RAY is described as a new AI travel chat assistant. The listing says it helps users find routes, compare options and plan journeys within the app.

Alongside trains, the developer lists bus, hotel and metro bookings as available in the same app.

The developer says customer support is available around the clock, 24x7.
