Hi,
If anyone could share tips that will help in successfully booking tatkal ticket on high rush routes like Delhi-UP & Bihar.
I have tried a lot, but every time the sites lags so badly that until I reach final page. It shows all tickets have been sold.
There is no issue with my wifi, I checked it. Right now using Irctc on desktop for doing so.
1. Use IRCTC mobile app to passenger details, then at the time of tatkal booking, those will be visible to select.
2. Login in IRCTC atleast 5 minutes before the tatkal booking window.
3. Open the required journey for tatkal, click on book now once the tatkal booking window opens.
4. Don't select any preference for seats.
5. Use UPI payments for the transactions.
Yes the site lags a lot. On high demand routes it's difficult to get tickets. Try the irctc app instead of desktop...
@LG50 @myfungang829 Can I choose book only if confirm births are allotted. As I don't want money to stuck.
Thanks Everyone booked it successfully.

Specially, @LG50 Thanks for mentioning every single step, if you would have not shared it, then I wouldn't have been able to book ticket.
Chose Razorpay & In phone UPI app ( Paytm) to make payment.
Use autofill feature/extension
make sure passenger details are saved to avoid TQWL's
@Stone_man When you book tatkal ticket in future load money into IRCTC e-wallet and transaction completion will be quick and failure rate is very low. Normally, when you book tatkal you end up a higher price than what it is showing in the payment page. For me IRCTC didn't charge for opening e-wallet.
Thanks, bookmarked
Great post
Contact Dalals... they have everything automated to book tickets.
when you need Tatkal then book tatkal ticket easily on Tatkal basis
Used app to book ticket today on tatkal for gorakhdham express and got successfully at 10.03
The biggest annoyance for me is when they mark the pre-selected passengers in red forcing me to do that no food thing on each booking. I have already submitted my preferences in the masters list, why can't they just use the same at the time of booking? A total time waste
