The conditions are also included in the charts if there is any for the availability of the concession.
The table for the concession or the concession charts is divided in to two parts ‘Part A’ and ‘Part B’. Part A contains the concessions which are available directly at the Reservation Booking Offices and at the Stations. Some necessary documents are also required to place t the time of booking and making the concessions available.
The Part B table contains those concessions where the passenger should approach the designated Commercial Officers of the Railway in that particular area or the Division or the Zonal headquarters. The Officers will verify the eligibility and will issue the required and necessary approval letter on the basis of which the station manager of the respective station or the booking or reservation offices will publish the concessional tickets.
