The scramble for booking tatkal tickets in the morning should now be a little bit easier, with IRCTC adding
two high-capacity servers that have doubled peak-time efficiency.
Tatkal reservations on all Indian trains total roughly 4,00,000 tickets
(around 2.5 lakh PNRs) and are considered the hardest to book due to
their high demand.
The servers have been operational since the night of June 1, IRCTC said in a statement, raising the booking capacity to over 14,000 tickets per minute from the existing 7,200. The capacity augmentation has been done as an immediate step to cater to the summer-time demand for tatkal tickets, revealed IRCTC Chairman and Managing Director Dr A K Manocha.
"The positive results are already showing," he pointed out. "The measure is vital, considering that 54% train tickets in the country are booked through IRCTC website."
