IRCTC issues warning to passengers booking tickets for Diwali and Chhath; one mistake could lead to the loss of all their money..

If you are planning to book tickets online to travel home for Diwali and Chhath, you need to exercise caution during the reservation process. Entering incorrect details—such as passenger names, gender, or mobile numbers—can lead to significant inconvenience. Furthermore, errors can cause complications when trying to obtain a refund upon cancellation. IRCTC has urged passengers to avoid making such mistakes.

On the social media platform X, IRCTC has advised passengers to remain vigilant while booking tickets. Passengers should thoroughly verify all details before finalizing their booking. The corporation has also warned against falling prey to fraudulent agents and advises booking tickets only through authorized IRCTC channels and agents.

**Double-check details while booking tickets**

IRCTC advises passengers to double-check the information provided during the booking process. Ensure the passenger's full name is entered correctly, and accurately select the gender and enter the age. Additionally, provide the correct mobile number, as all ticket-related information—including confirmation and refund details—is sent to that number.

It is worth noting that in the rush to book tickets, passengers often seek help from unknown agents without verifying their authenticity. Fraudulent agents may overcharge passengers or even issue fake tickets.
