RailOne, the SuperApp of Indian Railways, has crossed two crore downloads in less than eight months of its launch and has also surpassed the five lakh ticket bookings per day mark in February 2026.
Developed by the Centre for Railway Information Systems (CRIS), the app was launched by Union Minister for Railways Ashwini Vaishnaw on July 1. Since then, it has gained rapid adoption among railway passengers across the country. The app integrates key railway services, including reserved ticket booking, unreserved ticketing, platform tickets, train enquiries, PNR status and other passenger-centric utilities.
Separately, Union Minister for Railways Ashwini Vaishnaw on Thursday announced the RailTech Policy and the complete digitisation of the Railway Claims Tribunal (RCT) as Reform Number Three and Reform Number Four under Indian Railways’ flagship “52 Reforms in 52 Weeks” initiative.
The RailTech Policy aims to engage innovators, startups, industry and institutions to promote innovation in Indian Railways. The new policy simplifies the selection process for innovators and introduces a dedicated “Rail Tech Portal” for innovation. Innovation challenges can be initiated by any innovator or departmental user through a single-stage detailed submission of proposals.
The policy provides a user-friendly interface, increases the scale-up grant more than threefold and doubles the maximum grant for prototype development and trials.
