Whilst I've not used the facilities at Agra, I have done exactly this elsewhere.

As long as you have a ticket that is valid for travel to an on-going destination (ie. you're not just arriving at Agra and not using the train out of there), you can leave your luggage for a nominal amount of money.

The other thing that's being stated in all the railway luggage rooms is that your bags must be locked with a padlock to prevent (minimise) theft.

Cheers
Zoltan
