Different Tatkal Quota??

Hi,

I need to book a ticket from Pune to Gondia for 27-Apr-12 in 3A in Azad Hind (12129). I checked Tatkal Quota for Pune -> Gondia and Pune -> Nagpur.

Pune -> Gondia
S.No. Date (DD-MM-YYYY) Class - 3A Class -SL
1 21- 4-2012 WL 26/WL 23 WL 71/WL 66

2 22- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 76 AVAILABLE 192

3 23- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 76 AVAILABLE 192

4 24- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 76 AVAILABLE 192

5 25- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 76 AVAILABLE 192

6 26- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 76 AVAILABLE 192


Pune -> Nagpur
S.No. Date (DD-MM-YYYY) Class - 3A Class -SL
1 21- 4-2012 WL 26/WL 23 WL 71/WL 66

2 22- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 80 AVAILABLE 208

3 23- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 80 AVAILABLE 208

4 24- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 80 AVAILABLE 208

5 25- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 80 AVAILABLE 208

6 26- 4-2012 AVAILABLE 80 AVAILABLE 208


Based on my past observations, getting Tatkal ticket for Pune -> Gondia was difficult than Pune to Nagpur. Thus, I was expecting different Tatkal Quota for above two cases. Based on above stats, it looks like the quota are different.. e.g. for Nagpur, total quota is seen as 80 while for Gondia, its 76. But, status for 21-Apr is showing same waiting for both cases. There may be possibility that it is same by chance. But, want to know if I am mistaken somewhere. Please advise where I am wrong? Because same thing is happending for SL class also as per above status.

Thanks,
Ashish

usually what happens is that the individual quotas are different, but the WL is common (somewhat like PQWL)...

I would agree with Param. If you check the status from Pune to Howrah you would find the same waitlist status.
