I booked a Tatkal Ticket today from TBM to MDU in 12652 Sampark Kranti Exp. Journey Date - 26th July Friday. Today I saw that this train is running more than 9 hours delay. if this is the case on Friday I want to take some other train / bus to go to MDU. Please suggest whether refund possible on Tatkal tickets due to late running of train like what is happening today...What is the procedure?

You need to file TDR for getting refund in case of late running train. But i am not sure whether tatkal ticket is having refund in this case...lets see what others say on this...

Yes, he can get the full amount by filing TDR, even without deduction of clerkage charge Rs. 30/-
Source of Info: Couple of weeks back when it rained heavily in South Gujarat (Valsad/Surat), I was to travel in Golden Temple Mail BCT-NAD. Due to late arrival of ASR-BCT twin, BCT-ASR train was announced to leave 2.5 hrs late from BCT. I has a confirmed tatkal ticket in SL. Around 5 hrs I wished not to travel, but was refused any refund at BCT as train wasn't starting 3 hrs late. Later, I decided to travel, but much to my amusement, it actually started 3.5 hrs late. I heard TTEs discussing - hehehe, we knew it will be more than 3 hrs late,
...
more...
but we smartly announced only 2.5 hrs delay, and actually flagged off 3.5 late, and saved lot of TDRs (not the IR's money, but the headache to prepare and give the same to passengers)
