Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) website and mobile app are now functioning normally after experiencing an outage that lasted approximately one-and-a-half hours. All services have been fully restored.
Earlier in the day, the outage had left numerous passengers unable to book train tickets, causing widespread inconvenience. Many users reported the issue on social media, highlighting their inability to access the platform for ticket bookings.
Downdetector, a service that tracks online disruptions, showed a surge in outage reports, with over 2,500 users affected. Most complaints focused on the website, while 28 per cent of reports concerned the mobile app.
Upon attempting to use the app, users were greeted with an error message that read, "Unable to perform action due to maintenance activity," indicating that the platform was undergoing issues. As of now, IRCTC is yet to issue an official statement regarding the cause of the outage or provide a timeline for resolution.
