According to sources,salman has revealed that he used a software worth just Rs 700.The software worth apparently managed to cheat the IRCTC server and book tickets in a jiffy.

How the software functioned:

Before the opening of tatkal ticket booking on IRCTC.co.in,all details of the passengers were entered in the counter software.As soon as the booking began at 10am the data used to be transferred automatically from the counter software to IRCTC website with train, journey date and other required details.

This way,tickets were booked even before those standing in queues at various counters across the country would get their booking done.According to officials,the software ,reportedly designed by salman himself,functions just like IRCTC website,but takes all details beforehand.

Salman used to provided the software to those who gave him money through tatkal booking to him.With in one month, the software was downloaded in as many as 2500 computers.He used to charge Rs.700 for each software download.

He had reportedly been using the software to run the tatkal ticket booking racket for the past few months.
