NEW DELHI: The Railways has decided to grant automatic refund of tickets on cancellation of trains, similar to waitlisted e-tickets.

There shall not be any requirement for cancellation/filing of ticket deposit receipt (TDR) for refund of e-tickets in case of cancellation of trains.

The new refund system will come into effect shortly.

In case of cancellation of trains, tickets booked at the passenger reservation system (PRS) counters shall continue to be refunded across the reservation counter as per the existing provisions.

In a tweet Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu said, "New way of refund on cancellation of train eliminates trouble faced by dear passengers. System upgradation already underway."
