Vande Bharat Sleeper: Know Ticket Cancellation Rules for India's First Sleeper Train

  • India's first Vande Bharat Sleeper train launched, connecting Howrah (West Bengal) and Guwahati (Kamakhya) in Assam.
  • The train covers 958 km in 14 hours, with unique ticket and concession rules.
  • No RAC system; concessions only for women, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, and duty pass holders.
  • Refunds are available for cancellations, but rules are stricter than regular trains.
  • Cancellation more than 72 hours before departure incurs a 25% fare deduction; between 72 and 8 hours, a 50% deduction.

Why It Matters: Vande Bharat Sleeper offers refunds, but strict cancellation policies apply based on timing.
