You can log on to www.irctc.co.in and go to Booked Tickets link and select the ticket to be cancelled. Initiate the cancellation by selecting the passengers to be cancelled.

If there is any partial cancellation of ticket please ensure that a fresh e-reservation slip (Electronic Reservation Slip) is printed separately as done for the original ticket.

For any claims on e-Tickets to be cancelled after the preparation of Reservation charts, send an email at the earliest to etickets@irctc.co.in giving full details of the ticket and stating the claim, which would then be processed by IRCTC with the Railway administration offline. Refunds as sanctioned by the Railway administration would be credited back to your account.
