TrainsDateHow to read the calendar
The calendar shows five months starting this month. Everything between tomorrow and 60 days from today is green, because those journey dates can be booked now. The date after the green block is the next one to open, and it opens tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM IST. Each morning the green block moves forward by one day.
Festival windows to watch
The older Durga Puja, Diwali and Chhath guide is still useful for autumn travel. For a single date with a reminder, use the booking date calculator.
The rule behind the colours
General reservations open 60 days before the journey date, counted from the train's origin station, at 08:00 AM IST. Tatkal opens one day before. Read how the advance reservation period works, or see Tatkal booking time for the 10 AM and 11 AM windows.
Quick FAQ
What does the green mean on the calendar?
Green days are journey dates you can book today, from tomorrow up to 60 days ahead. Grey days are still outside the 60-day window.
What do the red outlines mean?
The red outline marks tomorrow, the journey date for which Tatkal booking opens today at 10 AM (AC) and 11 AM (non-AC).
Why does a date show 'opens on' a different day?
Because each journey date opens 60 days before it. Tap any grey date and the calendar shows the exact morning it opens.
Does the calendar use my device date?
Yes. It uses your device's date, so if your device clock is wrong the calendar will be too.
