20 berths are available in this train on 2 Jan. What are the chances that I do not get a side berth if I book now?

yes...
Refer 81137, while booking just below the list of name boxes there are 3 options,
#
'None'
"Book if one lower berth is avlble"
"Book
...
more...
if two lower berth is avlble" and one more.
#
If you select the 2nd option i.e."Book if one lower berth is avlble" then it will book only if it is avlble otherwise it would promt for with a msg.

Re# 81137-6              
Yes, this facility is there.But, if one selects the option "at least one lower berth" and books, even if lower berths are not available the amount will be debited, no ticket will be booked and we will get a booking failed error. The amount will then take 2-3 days to be refunded.
There is no way one can know before payment if lower berth is available.

I guess you may be right. I will try to find if the checking happens before payment or after.
