PNR Alert is a free IRCTC PNR status checker with automatic WhatsApp notifications for Indian Railways passengers.
Track waitlisted (WL) and RAC tickets β get instant alerts when your ticket is confirmed, chart is prepared, or waitlist number moves.
Works for all trains including Rajdhani, Shatabdi, Duronto, Vande Bharat, and Express trains across India.
Independent service: PNR Alert is not affiliated with IRCTC or Indian Railways. We help you track public PNR and train status data, but official ticket and travel decisions should always be verified with Indian Railways before departure.
Built by Indian Railways travellers who track hundreds of PNRs every day β we monitor IRCTC status changes in real time so you don't have to refresh manually.
