About IRCTC

Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) is an Indian company in the catering, tourism and online railway ticketing business. It is headquartered in New Delhi and operates in India. Its official website is www.irctc.com.
IRCTC handles train ticket booking for Indian Railways, plus catering and tourism services. When bookings spike — during festival seasons or tatkal windows — the site and app can slow down or drop sessions. This page tracks the current status of the IRCTC website, mobile app, payment flow, and ticketing services so you can tell whether a problem is on your end or theirs.
IRCTC (Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation) is the official platform for booking reserved train tickets online in India. It also manages catering, tourism packages, and related rail services through its website and mobile app. The most common issues are login failures, payment errors at the final step, sessions timing out during tatkal booking, and slow page loads under heavy traffic. OTP delays and captcha errors are also reported frequently. Before assuming an outage, check your internet connection, make sure your app is updated, and try a different browser or clear your cache. Have your payment method ready and your IRCTC account details handy — booking windows fill up fast, and a fresh session often fixes a stuck payment.

Questions

Is IRCTC down right now?

According to reports on this page, IRCTC looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for IRCTC yet.

Why did my payment fail at the last step?

Payment failures usually come from the bank's payment gateway rather than IRCTC itself. Check with your bank that the transaction went through. If it did not, the seat hold is released and you can book again. If money was debited but no ticket was issued, refunds are processed automatically, though it can take a few days.

The site is very slow during tatkal hours. Is that an outage?

Heavy load at booking openings is expected and the service may still be working, just slowly. Check this page for a confirmed outage. Meanwhile, keep your details ready in advance and avoid opening multiple sessions, which can log you out.
