IRCTC Next Generation Login 2023 is Amazingly fast for Tatkal booking

IRCTC has launched IRCTC next-generation login and new next-generation e-ticketing system. IRCTC, for the past few months, was trying hard to improve its website and finally has done it. We might have noticed the difference in the journey planner. Sometimes we had a new one and sometimes an old one. The new journey planner was part of the new IRCTC next-generation website.

"Previously, the Next Generation website was accessible at https://nget.irctc.co.in, but now IRCTC has fully implemented it on its main www.irctc.co.in URL"

The next-generation e-ticketing system is much faster than the older website. NGET IRCTC registration and IRCT login are both much easy and faster. Tatkal booking is also faster.

  1. A whole new interface inspired by the old one, but still under up-gradation.
  2. IRCTC Login is now supported by Captcha. Now all users have to type a unique set of characters to log in to the NGET website.
  3. New Journey Planner to plan and book tickets.
All user's IRCTC account is being upgraded to the next generation e-ticketing system.

This next-generation website is composed of many new features like all new journey planners to book tickets. Now users will also automatically log out of IRCTC account after every three minutes to minimize the load on the website. Previously, users were getting a session expired error.

Improved New IRCTC Login Page

IRCTC login page has improved a lot in the new next-generation e-Ticketing system of IRCTC. Now it is faster to access it to book tickets online. IRCTC login page can be accessed at https://www.irctc.co.in, which is redirected to https://www.irctc.co.in/eticketing/loginHome.jsf. The homepage of the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation online ticketing website is the IRCTC login page.

As you type in your browser's website address, it will be presented to you with a login section in the middle of the page.

In the older version of the website accessing the IRCTC login page was difficult during Tatkal ticketing hours, especially during 10 AM in the morning. During this time, the traffic load on the website is huge, which slows down the website.

But IRCTC has launched its new next-generation e-Ticketing system to tackle the problem. It has become faster to access the IRCTC login page, and ticket booking has become faster. 

So log in to your IRCTC account through the NGET IRCTC login form and migrate to the IRCTC next-generation e-ticketing system to get the advantage of the all-new set of features and a much faster system. You will enjoy booking tickets now.
