Railway Loyalty Program
Indian Railway customers can avail discounts under the Railway Loyalty program.
To avail benefits under this scheme, a passenger has to hold Railway Platinum SBI card. The Railway passengers get various benefits including up to 10 percent cash back on AC ticket fares as SBI card travel reward points. The reward points can be earned on only first class AC, second class AC, third Class AC, executive chair car and AC chair car tickets. SBI card reward points are not available on sleeper class tickets.
One can purchase tickets with the reward points. One reward point is equal to Re 1. Passengers get one reward point on every Rs 125 spent on non-fuel retail purchases, including train tickets purchased on the Railway website. The customers will not have to pay transaction charges on train ticket booking through irctc.co.in, thereby saving 1.8 percent of the ticket price. They also get an exemption from paying one percent fuel surcharge while refilling petrols at pumps across the country.
