Compulsory 35 Seconds Wait to Book Ticket: IRCTC Website From now onwards we have to wait for ✅ 35 seconds to book ticket while online through IRCTC (The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation) Website. So it is not possible to book the ticket before 35 seconds after login the website for booking the tickets. This new method is to prevent mass booking by some fraud agencies. Following are the details regarding the method to prevent IRCTC website misuse. Some are using certain automated software to book tickets within seconds and therefore the needy ones are not getting the tickets at the proper time. It is a part of security measures taken by Railway to prevent manipulation of the IRCTC Website. Earlier, 10 seconds was the minimum waiting time for booking online train tickets. There was more chance for cyber misuse. 35 seconds is the minimum to fill the booking form followed by bank transaction online. If the mandatory time is more than this, then there will be a long queue and it will affect the whole booking system because there will be a great delay for booking. Users need to enter CAPTCHA - a number series for distinguishing between human and computer thrice now. This will be needed at the login, reservation and payment stages.
