What is the fine amount for travelling with Duplicate ID?

[logesharun]

Hi

I booked a ticket for my parents in 3A of Cheran Express, through Tatkal .
The ID proof my dad had was a duplicate Driving license , so TTE charge him 500 Rs .

I know the mistake was on our side , but want to know what is the actual fine amount for travelling in a tatkal ticket with duplicate (Xerox) ID card?

Thanks,
Logesh.

It is same as travelling ticketless.

Suppose you don't have ID in train. Then use this trick. In more than 60% of cases you'll be able to get through. When the TTE comes, just behave normally, with a pleasing smile, take out your purse and take out any id proof. In most of cases TTE will simply not check the ID. Even if he does so, you'll be considered ticket-less and most probably you'll be allotted same berths against full payment of normal ticket charges.

If you are traveling without id proof, its like you are traveling without ticket.
