Indian Railways to Allow Passengers to Change Travel Dates Without Fee from January

Brief by Shorts91 Newsdesk / 05:00pm on 07 Oct 2025,Tuesday India

From January, Indian Railways will let passengers change the travel date of confirmed tickets online without any extra fee. Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced the new rule, calling it a passenger-friendly move. At present, travellers must cancel their tickets and book again, which often leads to deductions and higher costs. The new system aims to reduce inconvenience for passengers who need to reschedule their journeys. However, the change will depend on seat availability, and passengers must pay any fare difference if the new ticket costs more. The decision is expected to help millions of train travellers across India. (PC: NDTV)
