Hyderabad, Feb 26 (UNI) The South Central Railway (SCR) introduced a cashback facility to promote the purchase of unreserved tickets through the UTS Mobile App.
The Zone has introduced the ‘UTS’ mobile application over 26 suburban stations in Hyderabad twin cities in 2016.
Later, this facility has been extended to all the non-suburban stations for the booking of platform, journey, and season tickets with effect from July 2018, covering all the UTS stations over this railway.
In a step to facilitate more convenience for unreserved passengers, booking of paperless tickets has been enabled to all the destinations across Indian Railways, the SCR said in a release here on Tuesday.
The UTS app is a big leap in the modern ticketing system and a boon to the huge segment of passengers on Indian Railways who travel on unreserved tickets.
In line with the Digital India initiative, the app enables cashless transactions, and passengers can make the payment through different digital modes such as R-Wallet, Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, UPI apps, or through internet banking.
R-Wallet will be available in the UTS app, in which the amount can be deposited up to the limit of Rs 20,000.
As a promotionalgesture, 3 per cent cashback is being given on the tickets purchased through R-Wallet.
