IRCTC Booking Tips: Indian Railways is the lifeline of the country. Every day about 2.5 crore people travel through it. Through trains, people reach every corner of the country for work, study, travel or to go home. Now most of the passengers book tickets themselves through IRCTC website or mobile app, because it is an easy and time-saving method. But the problem arises when the ticket goes in the waiting list or a confirmed seat is not available during booking.
That too during festive seasons, the situation becomes more difficult. Even those who have fast internet sometimes miss the ticket. But if you make some preparations before booking and adopt some tricks. So the chances of getting a confirmed ticket increases significantly. Let us tell you the methods by which you can get your confirmed ticket.
Prepare master list first
While booking tickets on IRCTC, the maximum time is spent in filling the details of the passengers, in which many minutes are spent in entering the name, age, gender, ID number and birth preference and in this time the seat gets allotted to someone else. Therefore, if you prepare a master list in advance, your work will become easier. For this, you will have to go to My Profile section in your IRCTC account and go to Master List.

Save payment details
The most important step during ticket booking is payment. Many times, after filling everything, people get stuck at the payment gateway.
