PNR (stands for Passenger Name Record) is a ten-digit code. It is written on top-left corner of a ticket. It is a tour record of an individual or a group of individuals. It is preserved in Central Reservation System database. This code is produced only when you have journey details. It is a continuation or repetition process by which passengers are able to get updates about the status of their journey. PNR code is utilized to passengers, whose tickets are not confirmed. It assists them to find whether their tickets got confirmed or not.

You can get your rail ticket reservation status from railway official site by inserting PNR number. Then you click on the PNR status checking button. This will help you to get current status of your reserved train ticket. The rail ticket status and the other details like date of journey, train name, boarding station and your destination station will also get displayed. While you are finding the PNR status of tickets reserved with Indian Railway, you can also search train seat availability, train schedule, station code, train number and train name using this interface.

If all available seats on a train are sold, then the Indian rail releases RAC ticket for railway reservations. In case, all of those are sold, WL tickets are released. If your train is ready to leave from the station and the reservation chart is finalized, then the cost of your WL (Waitlist) ticket will be automatically refunded. When you journey by train in India, you may find that your railway ticket is on a waitlist. This is quite common to see the current status of your train ticket on the IRCTC booking system.

When the railway ticket is booked for a train, all the details of passengers are saved in database of centralized reservation system. These details are related with a unique code (ten digit PNR number). As we know every train has limited number of seats, sometime you may not get a confirmed reservation ticket. There are various ways through which PNR status can be searched.

·         PNR status through railway official websites: One of the easiest ways to check your PNR status and submit a request on official Indian Railways website. This is the most preferred way to ask your PNR status.

·         Present booking status by using mobile SMS: This is one of the reliable ways to check your PNR status by sending an SMS.

·         Various online mobile enquiry:

a)      your ten digit PNR number to 139

b)      your  ten digit PNR number to 5676747

·         Railway reservation counters

·         Via a Smartphone app: By using various apps, you can check PNR status through Internet-connected Smartphone and tablets.

Whenever a passenger reserves a seat for any tour, unique code (PNR) is generated by Railway Reservation System. PNR number and PNR status is allocated to all railway tickets irrespective of the fact that they are being reserved online or not. After the chart preparation, PNR status will not update anymore. On charting, passengers who have confirmed tickets or RAC status are allotted seats. and those who have wait listed e-tickets are cancelled automatically.
