With reference to nature of passenger transport in India and in Rajasthan in particular, especially RSRTC, the current study is looking at online reservation system and issues pertaining to it. However, despite of improvement in passenger carrying capacity and number of buses still there exist some issues which need to be address very carefully. Amongst all other issues the major one is financial inefficiency or financial ill health of RSRTC i.e. RSRTC is a loss making entity since last some years. [3] Although, there are some ways to address this problem, but major is to be done by attracting more and more passengers and for this more and more facilities to be provided to the passengers. Now, it is said that amongst those facilities, in current digital era online ticket reservation facility is also important one.
