Sir, your point number 4 is 4. "No refund is given by Indian Railways after chart preparation in case of a confirmed online ticket. However, in such a scenario, user can use the online TDR (Ticket Deposit Receipt) filing facility and track refund status of the case, mentioned IRCTC."

The cancellation charges should be reduced further or limited to clerical charges, as Railway is not loosing anything and passengers are mostly continue in wait listed till the chart is prepared. more
