New Delhi: E-tickets bought through IRCTC will get costlier as Indian Railways has decided to restore service charges from September 1, according to an order.
The IRCTC (Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation) will levy a service charge of Rs 15 per ticket for non-AC seats and Rs 30 for AC seats, including first class, according to an order issued by IRCTC on Friday, news agency PTI reported. Goods and Services Tax (GST) will be applicable separately.
The service charges were withdrawn three years ago to promote digital payments.
IRCTC used to levy a service charge of Rs 20 on every non-AC e-ticket and Rs 40 for every AC ticket before it was withdrawn.
Earlier this month, the Railway Board had given its approval to the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) to restore the mechanism of charging service charge from passengers booking online tickets.
