The Indian Railways have launched a new IRCTC app (IRCTC Rail Connect) for unreserved ticketing through mobile phones. Payments for the same can also be made through e-wallets such as Paytm and Mobikwik.
The app will also be linked to cab aggregators such as Uber and Ola through which passengers will be able to book their cabs as well.
The Railway Ministry will also explore the advertising potential of this app to bring in extra revenue through corporate tie ups with hotels, cab aggregators and other utility companies.
