The railway e-ticket can also be transferred to another member of the passenger`s family!

Thus, Indian Railways offer the facility to change passenger`s name on the e-ticket.

IRCTC (Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Operation) is the e-ticketing arm of Indian Railways.

The passenger’s name change can be done by approaching a railway reservation office with a print out of the `Electronic Reservation Slip` and the original photo identity proof of one of the passengers. An important note - one has to visit the railway`s office at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure of the train as per extant Railway rules, according to IRCTC`s official website - www.irctc.co.in.

Given below are important aspects of this process:
  • The railway`s reservation offices can change boarding station and passenger`s name against a request from the passenger, as per the existing railway rules applicable to tickets booked through railways counters, said IRCTC.
  • The passenger is required to make a request for name change in e-ticket in writing 24 hours before the scheduled departure of the train to the nearest railway reservation office.
