The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Limited (IRCTC) has announced that it will offer special discounts to women passengers on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan.
The subsidiary of Indian Railways said that women passengers travelling by Tejas Express can avail a cashback of 5 percent. The offer can be availed on trips between 15 to 24 August 2021.
"The offer will not be valid for commuters booking their travel ticket between these days. They will be eligible for the cashback if they are travelling in the premium train between the given dates," said an IRCTC officer, as quoted by News18.
They further added that Raksha bandhan offer for women commuters can be availed for Tejas Express trains running on Lucknow-Delhi, and Mumbai-Ahmedabad routes.
Women travellers can avail this offer on every Tejas Express journey during 15-24 August. The cashback will be directly debited to the account used for booking of the tickets.
Tejas Express Trains on Lucknow - Delhi – Lucknow (82501-82502) and Ahmedabad – Mumbai- Ahmedabad (82901-82902) routes resumed their operation from 7 August 2021.
