What are the odds of getting confirmed for RLWL 1?

Will RLWL/1 get confirmed in 14 days? It's depends on the cancellations, who reserved before you. In mostly cases RLWL/1 will be confirmed, 90% chance to get confirmed .



The odds of getting confirmed for RLWL 1 (Remote Location Waiting List 1) are generally quite high, as you are the very first person in line for that specific quota. RLWL refers to tickets booked for travel between intermediate stations that have their own designated set of seats. Because the quota for these stations is much smaller than the General Quota (GNWL), the list moves slower; however, being at position #1 means that only a single cancellation from a passenger sharing your specific journey leg is needed for you to secure a seat. In 2026, with Indian Railways' high volume of travel, a single cancellation is statistically very likely, especially more than 48 hours before departure. While RLWL generally has lower overall confirmation rates than GNWL, an RLWL 1 status is considered one of the "safest" waitlist positions to hold.
