Booking of reserved train tickets through mobile phones, introduced first in the National Capital Region on September 9, 2004, has since been extended to Mumbai and in the States of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu through Hutch and Reliance services.
Indian Railways have planned to expand booking of reserved train tickets through mobile phones to almost all the important cities and towns by the next financial year.
The limited reach of the internet system restricted the access to internet ticketing. This is sought to be expanded through the medium of the cellular phones which is now available with 45 million users.
