Indian Railways Chart Preparation Rule: From July 1, Indian Railways is bringing new rules regarding reservation ticket charts and fare. It is very important for those who travel long distance to know these rules.

If you also take the help of Indian Railways for long distance, then this news is for you only. Now the railway is going to take a big step by improving the process of ticket and reservation. These rules will come into effect from tomorrow i.e. July 1. From tomorrow, the rules are going to change regarding Tatkal ticket booking. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav has agreed to the proposal of the Railway Board, which was about preparing the chart eight hours before the departure of the train. Now the passengers will know whether their ticket is confirmed or not eight hours before the train departs.

This will make it easier for those people who travel to far-flung places and used to face a lot of trouble due to the ticket status not being confirmed till the last moment. The new reservation system will be implemented from December 2025.

The wait for the last moment is over

With the implementation of this new rule of the railways, the passengers waiting for the waiting list to end after booking the train ticket will now be relieved. In such a situation, they will not have to wait for the train till the last moment and if for some reason they are unable to get a confirmed ticket, then they will be able to get another ticket in time or complete their journey in some other way. The Railway Minister had got many options in this regard, out of which he has approved the eight-hour option.

When will the change happen

Railways is constantly taking new steps for Indian passengers. These big changes are going to happen from July 1. In this, there will also be a change in the rules of Tatkal ticket booking of Railways. Now from July 1, only Aadhaar-verified users will be able to make Tatkal booking through IRCTC website or app. Apart from this, there will be some other changes as well. For example, the reservation form can be filled in different Indian languages. There will also be an option to choose the seat of your choice. There will be special facilities for Divyangjans, students and patients. There will also be a calendar regarding the fare, which will tell how much the fare is on which day.

Increase in railway fares

Apart from this, the fares of railways have also been increased. Through this, the increased rates of Indian Railways train tickets will be implemented from July 1 itself. Under this, the fares of non-AC mail and express trains will increase by 1 paisa per kilometer, while the fares of AC class will increase by 2 paisa per kilometer. For a journey of up to 500 km, there will be no change in the prices of train tickets and MST in the second class compartment.
