IRCTC Reservation - Auto Fill Passenger List

Today I m discussing with you how to make it faster using auto fill the passengers list while booking your IRCTC tickets, so this is a feature provided by IRCTC next generation website itself, so you don’t have to install a plug-in or you don’t have to use a software for it. This will save you time while booking your tickets and this can make a difference between waiting list and RAC to a confirmed ticket, the time that is getting saved especially when you are booking Tatkal.

So you just need to log in to irctc.co.in through your web browser. Feed your login details and as I told you this is a feature provided by Indian Railways itself right now and you should be familiar with this interface.

Go to your user profile, click on user profile and you have an option called Master List of Passengers. you get these options like Master List of Passenger where you can create a Master List of passenger with a maximum of 6 names, you can add pretty much you family members, your self, your wife or spouse, your father mother brothers anybody. Click on add button, add your name and date of birth, so this date of birth will determine your age when you auto filling your passengers list when ever you are booking a ticket, Fill the sex and birth preference of course lower, food preference if you are book through Rajdhani or Shatabdi, if you are a senior citizen yet you have to manually fill in this data, Click on Add, your personal name comes in here, so most likely we are going to booking tickets for ourselves and not for somebody else,  so we can just fill in our personal names, family members names here.

You can make up to 6 entries and let me explain how we can use this while booking your tickets. Hit on plan my travel, fill in from with your source & destination, choose a date which has to be within 2 months away so that tickets are going to be available.

So this is the booking interface, select your desired Class here, if it is available 2 months away click on book now, so when you click on book now, you can see there this is the next page that you get when you booking your tickets, so here you have your travel list, select passengers from your master list, so click on it, this will use your profile data which ever family members you have entered in, so this will give you the same data, once you click on it, it will open a pop ups, if you want to enter every body here, you can just select on this all and append or add passengers, append means if you made already any more data and you have some other third person coming in, you have to fill in manually and after that when you want to add these two entries you can select append other wise you just click on both and add passenger.

If you want to choose just your self only, if you are alone traveling then just click on your name alone and click on add passenger, but in this dummy case click on all and click on add passenger here, as you can see it just automatically fill out the data, the name, age, female; as I said the age will be picked as per your date of birth and preference on berth and senior citizen is not selected because you did not put in your self as a senior citizen. Once this can fill out, you can just directly move on to next step on to making the payment online for the ticket booking. So this is an easy way, this is the feature that is provided by IRCTC itself so you need not worry about using software or using plug-ins like most of that people suggest to save time with the auto filling the passengers name list.
