Southern Railway has successfully expanded the facility of Paperless Ticket on Mobile which was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Railway Minister on the 22nd of April, 2015. This facility is now available for suburban ticket booking over the entire network which extends from Chennai Beach to Gummidipoondi, Chennai Beach to Tiruvallur, Chennai Beach to Velachery and Chennai Beach to Chengalpattu. Passengers having the ùtsonmobile app’ on their smart phones will now be able to book their suburban journey tickets from any station to any station on the suburban network and carry the ticket on their phones.
Passengers who have booked suburban tickets through this app. must on demand show their tickets, available on their phones, to the ticket checking staff. Otherwise they will be treated as travelling without ticket. With this, the Mobile Ticketing Application is fully functional and will issue paperless tickets only. For more details on the application, please visit www.utsonmobile.indianrail.gov.in
Chennai is the first city to have this facility on Indian Railways and this is the first step towards the Hon’ble Railway Minister’s initiative of Òperation Five Minutes’.
