Just so that people get to know that it really works here I have booked a ticket today from LNL to HYB with a boarding point of PUNE on 17031. Here is my PNR 8105424638 for reference

5) One berth was randomly picked up by the system amongst the X number of berths for LNL-HYB. Since the same berth could also have been allotted from HYB, the status did not reflect any change.
