Facility of Change of Name on Concessional Tickets

Indian Railways has announced that it has been decided to extend the facility of change of name to the attendant of a Person with Disabilities (PwD) on a concessional ticket. This will be permitted as per the provisions of the Railway Passengers (Change of Name) Rules, 1990, subject to the condition that the change of name does not involve any refund or payment of the difference in fare.

Changing Boarding Station

• If the boarding station is changed within 24 hours before the scheduled departure of the train, no refund will be allowed under normal circumstances. However, in exceptional situations such as cancellation of the train, non-attachment of a coach, or delay of the train by more than three hours, normal refund rules will apply.
• Once a passenger changes the boarding station, they will lose the right to board the train from the original boarding station. If a passenger is found travelling without proper authority between the original and the revised boarding station, they will be required to pay the applicable fare along with a penalty for that portion of the journey.
• Change of boarding station will not be permitted if the ticket has been seized. It is also not allowed for PNRs booked under the VIKALP option, for I-Tickets through online mode, or for tickets issued under current booking.
• If the boarding station was changed at the time of booking, passengers will be allowed to modify the boarding station only one more time through the “Booked Ticket History” section.
