The Indian Railways reserves seats, berths, compartments or carriage for passengers who are willing to book ticket in advance. This format is called as reservation ticket booking, and is generally given first preference. Advance reservations are made generally up to 120 days in advance for all classes and all trains. The period of advance reservation (ARP) is exclusive of the day of departure of the train. Interestingly, if you are booking ticket for a senior citizen, then the railways also give in some concession to that customer. This makes the ticket for senior citizen cheaper than compared to general passengers. However, there is a catch. And if you are booking a ticket for senior citizen, then you must take a note of these points.
Firstly, the Indian Railways concession to senior citizens through PRS (Passenger Reservation System) shall be granted only on demand and not by default as at present.
Demand for concession shall be made on Reservation Requisition form in the case of reserved tickets.
If a concession is being issued to senior citizen, then a concerned passenger must carry documentary proof showing their age or date of birth, issued by any Government Institution/Agency/Local Body. like Identity card, Driving License, Passport, Educational certificate, certificate from Local Bodies like Panchayat/Corporation/Municipality, or any other authentic and recognised document.
