Telescopic Ticket Query:
This april (2016), I'm planning for a journey from TVC-SVDK.
Journey breakup:
TVC- NDLS - KERALA SMPRK KRANTI (3A)
NDLS- SVDK - UTTR SMPRK KRANTI (3A)
SVDK-NDLS
...
more...
- UTTR SMPRK KRANTI / SHRIMATA VD EXP (3A)
NDLS-GJL - INTERCITY (CC)
GJL-NDLS - INTERCITY (CC)
NDLS-TVC - KERALA SMRK KRANTI (3A)
What I want to know:
1. Can I avail for Telescopic tickets ( maybe not for NDLS-GJL journeys) ?
2. How can I get them? Is it same as "onward journey" mentioned in PRS forms?
3. Can anyone calculate and tell me what would be rates for telescopic tickets ( Class mentioned in brackets)
I have done calculation for point to point , for 2 adults and 1 kid ( though i considered as 3 tickets, as journey will be in april), Total fare for above trip is Rs. 22020/-. Does telescopic ticket will reduce this figure significantly??

it will be for doj from 10/4/16.
ie, If ur doj is on or after 10/4/16 , you have to pay full charge if your child need a separate berth, otherwise half charge only.

you don't need a circular journey ticket here. also it will not be valid at you intend to use the same trains in both direction which overlaps and not a circular router. get a simple telescopic ticket from KCVL to SVDK and back. book GJL separately.

Re# 1689277-6              
Thanks guys. Since morning I m trying to get any railway officals over phone for the same. But this site is more helpful.
Few more questions:
1. Trains i book for must be within ARPs, isn't it? For telescopic tickets from KCVL - NDLS -SVDK,23 aprl kcvl smpk kranti & 25 aprl uttar smprk kranti, I have to go with 25 aprl trains ARP. And then book telescopic ticket for both trains on same day.
2.

more...
Is there any time period for telescopic tickets. On return, i intend to spend 8 days in GJL. So return tickets will be SVDK -NDLS <8 DAYS GAP> NDLS- KCVL. Is this possible with telescopic tickets??

1. You can book KCVL-SVDK ticket with reservation upto NDLS on 23 aprl arp and just get the NDLS SVDK part reserved when the arp for that part opens.
2.yes break journey rules apply and if you think of 8 days break then you cannot book a telescopic ticket.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
