BREAK JOURNEY RULES


Holders of single journey tickets for distance of more than 500 kms. (actual distance) are allowed to break journey at any station en-route. The first break of journey shall not, however, be made until a distance of 500 kms. has been travelled from the starting station. Only one break-journey will be permitted on tickets upto 1000 kms. of distance and maximum two break-journeys will be allowed on tickets of longer distances. the period of break-journey that can be availed at a station will be upto a maximum of 2 days only excluding the day of arrival and the day of departure. However, break of journey on single journey tickets over suburban sections of Indian Railways will not be permitted. For all return tickets, each half of the tickets is treated as a single journey ticket but the return journey must be completed within the period for which the ticket is available.


 Example:-

1.A passenger with single journey ticket for 800 kms. wants to break his journey at 423 kms.not permissible
2.A passenger with single journey ticket for 600 kms. wants to break his journey at 501 kms.
Permitted for 2 days maximum
3.A passenger with single journey ticket for 1050 kms. wants to break his journey at 400 kms. and 801 kms.

1. Whenever a through passenger detrains at a station en-route for catching a connecting train, it should not be treated as break journey provided such halt is for less than 24 hours. For example, the holder of a direct ticket from Pune to Jammu Tawi via Dadar travels from Pune to Bombay by any day train a day earlier in order to catch Bombay-Jammu Tawi Express next morning leaving Bombay at 6.25 hours shall not be treated as break journey.
Note :-
Break of journey is not permissible on the tickets of certain trains like Rajdhani Express, Shatabdi Express, etc., which have separate all inclusive fare structure on point-to-point basis, and therefore, refund on such partially used tickets is also not admissible.

2. Passengers are required to have their tickets endorsed. The endorsement shall consist of the Station Code, Station Master's initials and the date.
Note :- 
Passengers breaking journey and not obtaining the endorsement as prescribed will be treated as persons travelling without a proper ticket and dealt with accordingly.

3. Passengers breaking the journey en-route except as provided in paragraph (1) above must surrender their tickets at the station where journey is broken. Refund for the untravelled portion on such tickets will be allowed in special circumstances only subject to the condition laid down in Rule 213,4 and provided also that the procedure given in that rule is followed.

4. Break journey shall not be permitted short of the station upto which reservation has been done. If a passenger seeking reservation on through tickets asks for break journey en route it should be clearly indicated on the Requisition form the names of the station where the break journey is requested. Reservation in this case will be done upto break journey station only.
