Plan My Travel Tatkal Ticket Booking Online & Seat Availability

I have decided to give my blog readers full knowledge of online ticket booking to really very new beginners who have just registered to IRCTC and don’t know from where to start their online ticket booking Learning process.

A great problem is coming to users is with the login page, mostly at tatkal hours it does not load up at time.

Whenever you want to book a Tatkal ticket first visit this page: IRCTC Login Alternate.
Enter your username and password their click on GO button. You will simply login easily into the IRCTC homepage. This is the Plan My Travel Page from where you can enter your travelling details.

    I'm facing problem while doing online payment in irctc. State Bank of Travancore is not there in debit card option for payment. And i have account in SBT only and i don't have net banking also.. So I kindly request you to add SBT also in the option for debit card payment..
