Understanding IRCTC connection and service problems
IRCTC's ticketing flow separates sign-in, train availability, reservation and ticket cancellation. Its official eQuery portal provides a route for ticket-related support, including problems that cannot be completed online.
The checker above requests irctc.co.in from eight configured locations and shows the responses and measurement times. Compare those observations with the actual IRCTC action that failed. A homepage response alone cannot verify an account, app workflow or transaction.
Other checks in shopping & services: Paytm status check, Flipkart status check, PhonePe status check, BookMyShow status check. Compare results separately; these links do not establish a shared outage.

IRCTC official website and help
Open irctc.co.in
Open the website in your browser and compare it with the result above.
Where to report problems with IRCTC
Open IRCTC help / reporting. Use the provider's customer-service or account-help route for the affected product. Sign-in may be required for private account questions.
Details to include in your report
Train and travel date, booking/cancellation step and error time; never publish the PNR, passenger identity or payment details.
Attach the checker’s downloaded JSON if it helps show the hostname, regional responses and original timestamps. Describe what happened in your browser or app as well. A report sent to WebsiteDown.org is not automatically forwarded to IRCTC.
What to check when IRCTC is not working
These are troubleshooting comparisons, not claims that IRCTC is currently experiencing a particular incident.
Start with the action that failed
Record the train, journey date and failed reservation step. If payment finished, check booked-ticket history before attempting another reservation.
Narrow down the affected service
A waitlist or unavailable quota is a booking outcome rather than a website outage. For cancellation or TDR trouble, keep the existing ticket reference and use the official support route.
Read the actual checker response
A 403 Forbidden or 429 Too Many Requests means the host answered but refused or limited that request. A timeout gives no HTTP response. Keep those outcomes separate and check the available-region count before treating the result as broad evidence.
How to check if IRCTC is down
- Compare the website response. Open irctc.co.in in your browser and run the website check. Compare the time and error; a homepage response does not verify every feature.
- Test the feature that failed. Record the train, journey date and failed reservation step. If payment finished, check booked-ticket history before attempting another reservation.
- Check for a different cause. A waitlist or unavailable quota is a booking outcome rather than a website outage. For cancellation or TDR trouble, keep the existing ticket reference and use the official support route.
- Keep useful report details. Train and travel date, booking/cancellation step and error time; never publish the PNR, passenger identity or payment details.
A useful comparison for IRCTC
Repeat the same action in a second browser or on another available connection, keeping the item and account the same. Change one thing at a time so the result is comparable. Leave required workplace or school security controls in place.
Follow the website troubleshooting guide for connection checks. Preserve any unsent work before refreshing a form or changing a session.
