Tell me, to travel in the train in sleeper and AC class, you have to make a reservation (Train Reservation). Come, today we will tell you how you can travel in AC class by booking a ticket in sleeper class. Many rules have been made by the Railways, about which people are not aware.
Railway provides auto upgrade facility
According to the rules of the railway, the facility of auto upgradation is given to the passengers by the department. When you make your reservation, then at that time you get a chance to auto upgrade. In this, your ticket gets upgraded to the class above the class for which you book the ticket.

You will not have to pay any separate charge,
you do not need to go anywhere to take advantage of this railway facility. You get this facility while sitting in the train. Along with this, you do not have to pay any separate charge for this auto upgrade facility, but the benefit of this facility will be available only when that coat is available in the seat.
Will have to pay the difference of rent
many times it happens that many seats in the train remain vacant in first and second AC. Due to their high rent, they remain vacant. For this reason, Railways has started this facility. For upgradation from the existing class to another class, you will have to pay the reservation fee for that class as well as the difference in the fare between the two classes.
You can contact TTE also, apart from this you can also upgrade your seat by contacting TTE. If you are traveling in sleeper class. If you wish to travel in AC class, then all you have to do is approach the TTE who is in the compartment at the time of travel.
