RailMitra: A Start-up India Recognized Start-up Revolutionizing the Indian Railway Journey Planning In India
Indian Railways gains Rs. 750 crores as cancellation charge every year consistently. The vast majorities of these bookings are worthless and can be prevented using a platform which gives information about Indian Railway train enquiries.
Because of these disruptive operations of Indian Railways, train travel in India was a chaotic experience. We always come across delays of trains, unavailability of train seats, and a last-minute change in platform. Passengers often suffered many difficulties until new-age start-up businesses like RailMitra revolutionized the Indian Railway journey.

RailMitra recently added Rail News sections in its portal to keep the Railfans, and general people informed about the specific railway news and updates.
RailMitra also has on-boarded “Hotels Nearby Stations†services on its portal, which would prove to be the best option for travellers who need to stay for few hours near railway stations or in the town for business purposes or tourism.
