How it works

Use your own active mobile number.

Enter a valid phone number that you control and can access immediately. Make sure the SIM is active, has signal, and can receive SMS messages without delay.

Choose the correct country code + number.

Select the right country code, then enter the full mobile number carefully. Keep it clean when you paste it: +CountryCodeNumber or digits-only if the form requires it, with no spaces, no dashes, and no extra leading 0 unless IRCTC specifically asks for it.

Request the OTP on IRCTC.

Start signup, login, password recovery, or account verification, then tap Send OTP. Do not spam the resend button. One request, wait 60–120 seconds, then resend only once if needed.

Receive the SMS on your phone.

The OTP will be sent to your registered mobile number. Copy the code and enter it on IRCTC promptly, because verification codes may expire quickly.

Complete verification securely.

Once the OTP is accepted, continue with login, account recovery, or profile verification. Never share your OTP with anyone, as it protects your IRCTC account.

If it fails, troubleshoot smart.

If no code arrives or you see an error, avoid repeated attempts. Check the number format, confirm the network signal, wait a moment, and try a single resend. If the problem continues, use official IRCTC support channels.
