APSRTC Online Ticket Reservation

Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC, http://www.apsrtc.in) started online ticket reservation service. Passengers can reserve their e-tickets online.

Till now, APSRTC tickets were sold at the bus stations or through agents. Now on, passengers can directly book their tickets on APSRTC website.

To book a ticket with APSRTC, just click here: http://www.apsrtconline.in/

First time e-ticket passengers have to create a user id on new user registration page at http://www.apsrtconline.in/

The e-ticket booking facility will be available from 06:00AM in the morning to 06:00PM in the evening.

Passengers can pay for the ticket using credit card or debit card.

At the time of boarding the bus, passengers have to show the printed e-ticket along with an identity proof.

I'd say, this is long pending from APSRTC. While it may have to cater to rural and sub-urban travel needs, it cannot ignore the thriving long distance transport business. I've seen many AP bound passengers in Bangalore, Pune, Bombay clamoring for a ticket, at the mercy of travel agents and private operators. In the recent past, redbus.in did ease the pain of getting a ticket. Some private operators like kesineni travels (kesinenitravels.com) have their own website. Finally, its a good step from APSRTC to roll out this online ticket booking system.

So, no more waiting in queues, Happy journey!

It is good one for the passengers. But the service is very bad.


Even I did not see any option for Forgot Password in the site.

I have sent the mail twice to the CC, but no response. I would like to cancel my ticket. But no option yet.
