IRCTC BOOKING SYSTEM

ABSTRACT

• IRCTC provides tickets to public in the comforts of their home/residence and save them from hassles to visit Railway Reservation Centers.” The delivery of tickets is made either through the courier or a person can take out the print out for traveling. By doing this IRCTC is not only saving time of public but also saving their cost of traveling. For Railways it is saving on their infrastructure i.e. Buildings, Electricity, Furniture, Staff etc.

• The spirit behind the project was to avoid the customer going to Passenger Reservation System (PRS) and instead bring PRS to customer. IRCTC has highest Success Rate of On line Booking and Payment. For the convenience of customers cancellation of ticket is also permitted online with easy refund process. The ticket can be booked using any VISA/MASTER/ AMEX/Diners Credit Card, Internet Banking account of 27 Banks or 3 Cash Cards. TATKAL Tickets can be booked in 5 days advance (excluding the date of journey) through our site.

• The steady growth of IRCTC this project emphasizes an increasing acceptance of the Internet ticketing system over time.

Existing System:

• This IRCTC system is initially implemented as Web-Based application and can accessed only through Windows Computer. Lagging of global accessing of an application, it will serve a less number of peoples. It leads burden on local maintenance, because it will not maintain high end compatible measures.

Proposed System:I

• In this Project we are trying to access the IRCTC because now-a- days all are using smart phones and all the desired operations are done through that phone. In this project the whole information about the railway reservation and the client can easily book the ticket through mobile. From mobile he/she can access the app from anywhere, so that he can save the time as well as resource. Maintenance will be very less.
