Indian Railways has taken a decision to increase the advance reservation period from existing 90 days to 120 days. The new decision will be effective from March 10 after Centre for Railway Information System (CRIS) make necessary changes in the software for this purpose.

This means, now one can book his train ticket 120 days before the journey.So the passenger will be able to plan his journey four months in advance.

However advance reservation rules for certain short distance trains for which the advance reservation period is 15 days will remain unchanged.

Also there will be no change in case of the limit of 360 days for foreign tourists.
