How to create master list in IRCTC

As we all know how difficult it used to be to get train tickets. People had to wait in line for hours to get tickets. 20 years ago IRCTC launched its official website for online ticket booking. As the years passed, the website keep changing and IRCTC keep providing new features.

One of those facilities has been added recently which will help passengers to book online ticket booking quickly. Today we are going to talk about the same. Here we will tell you about how you can create a master list and quicken your ticket booking process on IRCTC.

Users can now book up to 12 tickets per month if they have their Aadhaar number verified, as well as at least one passenger. As before, no Aadhaar verification is required for booking up to 6 tickets in a month.

Steps For Creating Master List On IRCTC

  • First of all, the user will have to verify themselves using the Aadhar KYC option in my profile.
  • An OTP will be sent to the user’s cellphone number, which is linked to their Aadhaar number, to verify their Aadhaar number. The user’s Aadhaar will be validated once the OTP is successfully sent.
  • If you are booking more than 6 tickets then at least one person for whom the ticket is booked should also be Aadhaar verified.
  • Users must verify probable passengers using their Aadhaar numbers and save the confirmed passengers in the passenger master list. This should be done before you start booking your ticket (if you are going to purchase more than 6 tickets in a month).
  • When you are booking the tickets, you can add the Aadhar verified passengers master list at the time of booking and book additional tickets up to 12 tickets in a month.

How to verify Aadhaar Number

  • Go to the IRCTC website and login into your account using your username and password.
  • Go to my profile menu and click on ” Aadhar KYC”.
  • Click the Send OTP button after entering your Aadhaar number. The Aadhaar System (UIDAI) will send an OTP to the mobile number associated with your Aadhaar. Please make sure you have your Aadhaar-registered mobile number with you.
  • Now enter the OTP you received on your Aadhar registered number and then click on verify button.
  • To validate KYC details, click the submit button. After that, the user will be Aadhar verified.

Add a Passenger with Aadhaar Number

  • Click on my profile menu and then select ” Master List”.
  • Provide accurate and complete details, such as name, date of birth, gender, and Aadhaar number, as shown on the Aadhaar Card, when adding new passengers to the Master List.
  • Now, for adding and verifying Aadhar details, click on the submit button.
  • Passengers will be added to the Master List with a “pending” verification status. In the case of passenger Aadhaar verification, no OTP would be sent.
  • Please use the “Click here to check pending Aadhaar verification status” option to verify the status of the Aadhaar details verification.
  • Passengers whose Aadhaar data were successfully confirmed would have their status changed to “Verified,” while those whose verification was unsuccessful will have their status changed to “Not Verified.”
  • Passengers who are already on the Master list but have not been verified with Aadhaar can be verified by selecting “Edit” and entering all of their information, including their Aadhaar number.
