Indian Railways is a very economical and convenient means of travel as compared to traveling by any other means. This is why crores of passengers travel on Indian trains every day. Keeping in mind the convenience of the passengers, Indian Railways is operating thousands of trains across the country. Apart from this, Indian Railways has also made many rules so that the passengers do not face any kind of problems while traveling. However, it is necessary to have a ticket to travel on Indian trains. Due to this, many passengers book their train tickets well in advance. At the same time, many times in a hurry, some passengers book a train ticket for some other day instead of the day they have to travel.
After booking a ticket for some other day or date, they become very upset. After this, to book a ticket for that date again, they have to cancel that ticket. In this, they also have to pay cancellation charges.
If you have booked a train ticket for the wrong date, then instead of canceling it, you can change the date or transfer the ticket to someone else.
If you have booked the ticket from the railway ticket counter, then you can change the date or name on it. However, if you have booked the ticket from the IRCTC website or any app, then you cannot make any changes to it.
To change the date on the ticket, you have to go to the ticket booking counter 48 hours before the train departs. At the counter, you have to show your old ticket and tell about changing the date. In this way, you can change the date of the train ticket.
