AUTO UPGRADATION OPTION IN INDIAN RAILWAYS

Auto Upgradation is an option provided by Indian Railways to passengers with

waitlisted tickets. In case a confirmed ticket holder cancels their ticket, the system
automatically upgrades the next waitlisted passenger to a higher class or berth,
subject to availability. This is done automatically by the system without any
additional charges to the passenger.

However, it is important to note that auto-upgradation is subject to availability

and cannot be guaranteed. Additionally, passengers who have opted for auto-
upgradation may not be able to claim a refund for the difference in fare between
the lower and higher class/berth, even if they do not get upgraded.
