IRCTC web site is restored now.
Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation’s (IRCTC) web site was down for an hour on Monday morning, making it tough for customers to e book tickets on-line. According to the downtime message, the e-ticketing service was unavailable as a result of “upkeep exercise”.
Upon logging on to the web site, customers acquired a message that learn, “Due to upkeep exercise, e-ticketing service won’t be out there for subsequent one hour. Please attempt later. For cancellation/file TDR, please name at buyer care no. 14646, 0755-6610661 & 0755-4090600 or mail at etickets@irctc.co.in.”

Online reserving, cancellation and Tatkal ticket reserving companies had been affected.
Many customers expressed their displeasure and shared frustration on social media.
“Using the IRCTC app every day looks like operating a marathon in gradual movement, besides the end line is a ‘Session Expired’ message (sic),” wrote a social media person on X (previously Twitter).
