I think most Indians or Indian visitors may have used IRCTC service once in their life. The ratio of business conversion is almost 99% and that’s the reason that Indian Railway doesn’t offer any kind of coupon or money saving skims. The minimum railway ticket cost of IRCTC almost 300 rupees. People prefer railway for safe, fast and affordable journey. But can you believe that we can save some money from IRCTC too? Well I say yes.
IRCTC adds new feature regularly. There are lots of changes done by their developer team since launching of online railway ticket booking system. Recently they have added Cash Card / Wallets and IRCTC Prepaid option for payment gateway transaction. We can save money by using these 2 options.
