A grab from the irctc login page official website old interface.

When the IRCTC login page opens it gives you an option to login. If you are a new visitor you should create your account first. Instruction to create a new account can be found on the official irctc website itself. Please make sure that all the details that you put in are correct. If you make a fake account irctc can disapprove your account at a later stage without any warning and can file a case against you for false impersonation.

The best thing about the irctc website is that it accepts all major Indian banks debit/credit cards and the payment is also possible via internet banking. I am using the website for the past 10 years and so far I have got no problems except few errors and payment failures. In case your payment is done i.e. amount from bank account is debited but ticket not booked then you need not worry. The system automatically reverses the payment and you get your money back within a week. So if your money is deducted and you didn't get your money back to your account you don't need to worry. Just for few days or about two weeks and even after you have not got your irctc login money back do try to contact irctc customer care.

Update: A great news for the irctc login registration users is that it is working on a brand new more user-friendly website which has been launched through the last week of April 2014. This new site is more robust, fast and gives less errors than the previous one. But as you can see irctc people are more concerned in revenue generation than hassle free user experience that's why the login username and password is in the middle of the page and you to look for it very carefully. For your covenience I have put here a screen shot of the login page.

IRCTC is now improving and has shed some ads to let you login fast by opening their homepage fast but most people think that this will not help in making the website fast as well because number of users are increasing exponentially. As per the railway budget 2013 it was able to handle 120,000 users at any given time.

IRCTC Trolled

IRCTC one of the giant e-commerce of Asia is making millions or can say billions of Rupees may be because of its high demand in India (The second most populated Country of World till now). Despite being a slow and ir-responsive website its is used daily by lakhs of Indians because they have no other option other than travelling by trains. Bad roads and lack of security are main reasons. Also, the railway provides less facility and less seats to travel.

Railway sector has a great share of showing bad side of India to tourist. In spite of the fact that they charge more than normal for tickets their facilities are worst. Railway sector makes crores of profit yearly but never thinks to improve its infrastructure, introducing new and latest technology trains and of course the condition of stations.

Though the site has earned the medal of top e-commerce site but it is still too bad at providing online facilities even. 60% to 80% of public using IRCTC to book ticket online get errors like service unavailable, multiple login, session timeout, and sometimes payment gets done but ticket does not. This enables the thugs and agents to leech innocent passengers' money. Middlemen on the railway stations and near ticket booking widows are a common site. Time and again it has been brought to the notice of authorities that such people should be blocked access to railway stations and discouraged by imposing heavy penalties on them if found indulging in such activities. But authorities are yet to come to the terms and accept their fault.

Agents IRCTC Login Booking Trick

IRCTC Login

With lots of agents and IRCTC Login problems people usually are unable to book tatkal tickets but agents who are not allowed to book tickets at the tatkal starting time get the tickets for you. Have you ever thought how do they do it? How they manage to book tickets? You will obviously say that its their daily work and they know the best and also have software which let them book fast. Well, I would agree with only one of your point that is their daily work but not the software. It is true that once a software worked and let some agents who paid for the software to book tatkal tickets before tatkal time but I R C T C has overcome this error and software trick. That software costs around Rs.70,000/- according to some newspaper I read.

Tricks that Agents do with IRCTC Login Fast and Book Tatkal Tickets 

First you must know what they use! They use:

• Mozilla Firefox - it is web browser like internet explorer and can be downloaded from here.
  
• Multiple IRCTC accounts / IDs, though this is illegal but they take the risk. I would not suggest you go for multiple accounts though because unlike agents you are concerned about your own ticket or your relatives and friends and your genuine account is sufficient for this purpose.
• Two or three internet connections. Usually they have one broadband and one or two Net Setter (eg. reliance net or tata docomo dongle photon). For you a good broadband connection will be enough to book a ticket under tatkal scheme.
• Auto form Fill Scripts (very important factor in booking a tatkall ticket nowadays). You can refer to my post which is in hindi for this purpose.
• Sometimes using VPN - Virtual Private Network when very slow speed

So the next point is what is the procedure or steps needed to follow?

The steps are too easy and even you can do it easily if followed correctly.
