What is TDR ? How to File TDR Online in IRCTC?
This article is going to explain you about TDR. TDR means Ticket Deposit Receipt. That is submitting your ticket and getting refund on the untraveled ticket of IRCTC.
If you are unable to make the journey or you could not cancel the ticket after chart preparation but still you can get the refund on your ticket by filing TDR.
How it works ?
In the train TTE will be noting down in the passenger list that the specific berth/seat passenger is not traveled. Then the berth/seat will be allotted to any RAC person.
This chart will be handed over to Indian railway back office once the train reaches the Destination station. There the passenger who has not traveled will be uploaded in the system. Once we file TDR on the particular PNR no, this will be matched and refund is given if it is correct. Fraudulent TDR filing is prohibited.
