IRCTC Ticket Booking Update: For the convenience of passengers, the Indian Railways on Monday announced that the limit of booking online tickets through the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) website and the app have been increased. This facility is available for both types of passengers – whose accounts are linked with Aadhar card and those whose accounts are not linked with Aadhaar card.
Under this facility, IRCTC has decided to increase the ticket booking limit from 6 to 12 in a month for those users whose account is not linked with Aadhaar.
