Booking Train Tickets for Others through IRCTC Account

Booking train tickets can be a hassle-free process, especially when traveling with companions. If you wish to book train tickets for someone else using your IRCTC account, follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Book One Ticket

• Log in to your IRCTC account.
• Enter the necessary travel details (from station, to station, date of journey) and search for trains.
• Select the preferred train and class of travel.
• Fill in your personal details and complete the booking process.
• Make note of the coach number assigned to your ticket.

Step 2: Book Second Ticket

• Log in to your IRCTC account again.
• Enter the travel details for the second person.
• Select the same train, date of journey, and class of travel as the first ticket.
• In the “Coach” or “Seat” selection section, choose the same coach number as the first ticket. This ensures that both travelers will be seated in the same coach.
• Fill in the personal details of the second person and complete the booking process.

Additional Tips:

• To ensure that both travelers are seated together, it’s crucial to select the same coach number for both tickets.
• If the preferred coach is not available, you can choose an adjacent coach to increase the chances of being seated close to your companion.
• Consider booking tickets in advance, especially during peak travel seasons or for popular train routes.
• Keep a copy of both tickets for easy access during the journey.
• You can also book train tickets through IRCTC’s mobile app or by visiting designated ticket booking counters at railway stations.

By following these steps, you can conveniently book train tickets for others using your IRCTC account, ensuring a comfortable and hassle-free travel experience for your companions.
