Railway passengers can “opt out” of IRCTC’s digital data monetisation plan

Railway passengers can “opt-out” of the digital data monetisation plan of the IRCTC NSE -0.63 %, official sources told ET on Monday.

They also said the activity will strictly stay within “the confines of the law.”

This comes after privacy experts raised concerns over IRCTC’s Expression of Interest to rope in a consultant to explore avenues for passenger data monetisation.
