Missing the train in your run -up life is not something new. Often we take a ticket and leave the train, and then frustrated and throws the ticket. But it is wrong to understand that the train ticket train will be useless. Many do not know that even after missing the train, your ticket may be somewhat useful, and yes, your money can be returned.

In fact, missing trains in today’s hurry has become a very common thing. But instead of tearing the ticket, if you know about the rules of the train with a little restraint, some things can be your benefit. For example, if you have taken a general ticket, there is no reservation of any specific seat and miss the train, you can then travel by another train on that ticket. Because the general ticket is not just the permission of the travel, not exactly the place.

If there is a confirmation coach ticket…

But if your ticket is reserved, then you have to do a little workout, if you miss the confirmation coach ticket and the train. At that time you cannot take a ticket and climb into another train. But if the situation is somewhat serious, or you have the right reason, you can ask for help by telling the train TTE. At times, if there is a space available on the second train, TTE can arrange you to install it on the train. But all this is only available when the space is available and the situation is to be understood.

How to get a refund?

If you want a ticket refund, the railway has provided a special facility for it TDR, meaning ‘Ticket deposit receipt’. If you do not want to travel after you miss the train, you can file a TDR and ask for some of your money back. But there is also a condition. The TDR should be filled within only 1 hour after the train is missed. It is late, that the right to repay is over.

If you have booked a ticket from the IRCTC app or the website, TDR can be able to sit at home and fill it online. But if you take a ticket from the station, you have to go to the TDR form.
