Tatkal Charges

I have found everywhere on www.irctc.co.in that there is no any reason for charging tatkal charge as Rs 150/- instead of Rs 75/- for sleeper class and as Rs 300/- instead of Rs 200/- for AC classes in non-peak season in the months of February and March. Following are the information about tatkal charges on www.irctc.co.in :

"Class Tatkal Charges

Non-Peak season Peak season

1st Feb. to 31st March 1st Apr. to 31st July

1st Aug. to 31st Aug. 1st Sep. to 31st Jan.

2AC 200 300

3AC 200 300

AC CC 75 150

SL 75 150

2S 15 15

Note:-Trains and classes with average utilization of 80% and above from April to September shall be realized uniform tatkal charges applicable for the peak period." I intend to draw your attention that in above note it is mentioned for months April to September but not for February and March at all.
