The Indian Railways recently announced that they have decided to restore the Tatkal Ticket booking process for 30 Special trains and 200 Special Mail Express with a reservation period from the existing 30 days to 120 days. Here's a quick view of how to book your tickets for these trains:

  6. Restoring all type-booking facilities marks an important step in Railway services. This will make ticket booking easy for all potential travellers from all parts of India.
Till now, the national transporter had not been allowing Tatkal ticket booking in these special trains. “All these special trains will have reserved coaches, but we have now decided to allow for Tatkal ticket bookings. Premium Tatkal ticket booking feature exists in some trains and will be allowed in these special trains too if the train regularly has that feature,” as per Indian Railway officials. The 200 IRCTC special trains that will run from June 1 include Janshatabdi trains, Duronto Express trains and other Mail/Express trains. The general and sleeper class coaches of these trains will also have only reserved seats. Indian Railways has fixed a maximum limit for the waitlisted tickets in each class. The 30 special trains that are currently running are all air-conditioned Rajdhani-style services. Meanwhile, all regular passenger train bookings of Indian Railways have been cancelled till June 30.
