IRCTC users can now cancel their ticket of one person or more from the reservation done in bulk. And this can be done online.
If you have an unused train ticket that you need to cancel, you can do so easily online through the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) website.
Have you booked train tickets for two or more people together through the IRCTC website and now want to cancel tickets for one person? Well, we often make reservations for trains together if we travel with families and friends. But sometimes we have to cancel our tickets due to a change in plans. While canceling a single ticket is easier, we often find ourselves in doubt when we have to do a partial cancellation- if you have done a booking of 4-5 seats and want to cancel for one or two seats.
