Upgraded IRCTC website grabbing eyeballs: Officials

Within a week of its launch, the IRCTC’s upgraded website has started grabbing eyeballs with a 12-per cent increase in the number of page views and a 37-per cent improvement in its response time, officials said on Tuesday.

The upgraded e-ticketing website and mobile application have user-personalisation features linked to user log-in, along with facilities for customisation, one-stop train selection for booking and integrated booking for meals and accommodation with tickets.

The website was launched by Railway Minister Piyush Goyal, who had said it was a gift to the nation on the New Year.
