I wish to know what happens if I cancel a tatkal WL ticket before chart preparation? (Say as 1 hour prior to chart preparation)
Do I get full refund or don't I get any refund.
I know that after chart preparation the WL tkt automatically gets canceled from IRCTC & money refunded.
Also I wish to know why they r not willing to refund...

I appreciate your views and have replied at the concerned entry, please.
Its really unfortunate that you have undergone some bad experiences.
i fail to understand as to why you did not book your tickets much before when you know you have to travel - (they get only 10 days leave only for half yearly exams) - and in each year, they may get the same number of holidays around the same time. in this case, with some foresight, you could have booked your tickets in advance. (+/- one or two days leave can be taken) that would have saved you the hassles of uncertainty due to non confirmed bookings - particularly when travelling with children.
