❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Q1: Is Rapid Tatkal free to use?
A: Yes! The core extension is 100% free. You can auto-fill login credentials, train search, passenger details, and booking review forms up to the payment step without paying a single rupee.
Q2: Does this extension guarantee a confirmed Tatkal ticket?
A: No software can guarantee Tatkal tickets. Availability depends entirely on IRCTC server capacity, train seat quotas, and high demand. Rapid Tatkal gives you a major speed advantage by eliminating manual typing and form errors.
Q3: Does the extension solve or bypass CAPTCHA?
A: No. IRCTC CAPTCHAs and OTPs are critical security layers. The extension pauses automatically at the CAPTCHA step so you can review and type the CAPTCHA yourself.
Q4: What are "Booking Sets" (Profiles)?
A: Booking Sets allow you to save multiple trip configurations. For example, you can create a "Home Visit (Sleeper)" set and a "Work Trip (3AC)" set, and switch between them instantly without re-typing details every time.
Q5: Which IRCTC portal should I use: Beta (eticket) or Classic (nget)?
A: Both are supported! You can toggle between "Beta — eticket" and "Classic — nget" in the popup settings. If one IRCTC flow experiences heavy server load during peak hours, you can switch to the other.
Q6: How does the Timer / Alarm work?
A: If you prepare your booking beforehand, you can set the timer to automatically launch IRCTC a few moments before 10:00 AM (for AC Tatkal) or 11:00 AM (for Non-AC / Sleeper Tatkal).
Q7: Is my IRCTC password or card information safe?
A: Yes. All data entered in the extension is stored strictly on your local computer using Chrome’s isolated local storage. It is never logged, tracked, or transmitted to any external server.
