At Kalyan Junction, Mumbai’s Central suburban railway divides towards Kasara and Karjat/Khopoli. Thakurli lies on the Mumbai side, while Shahad and Vithalwadi serve the respective outward branches. This makes choosing the correct destination especially important when using the Kalyan station UTS QR code. UTS QR posters at Indian stations are usually near ticket counters or the concourse. At Mumbai suburban stations the QR stickers are pasted near station entrances and ticket counters. Passengers scan these posters in RailOne, Indian Railways’ official super app. The old standalone UTS app was discontinued on 1 March 2026, with booking services transferred to RailOne.

How to Book a Ticket Using the QR Code at Kalyan Station
- Download and sign in: Install the RailOne app on Android or iOS. Log in with your IRCTC username and password, or register with your mobile number (OTP verification). Former UTS users should use the same mobile number so their R-Wallet balance carries over automatically.
- Reach Kalyan: Be at or near Kalyan station and open the RailOne app before boarding a suburban or other eligible unreserved service.
- Find QR booking: On the home screen tap “Unreserved Tickets” (it may appear under the UTS section) and open the QR scan/booking option.
- Scan the station poster: Use the RailOne app to scan the official Kalyan station qr code. Confirm that the originating station displayed is Kalyan Junction.
- Choose destination and type: In the RailOne app, select your destination, ticket type, class and passenger count. For example, Shahad and Vithalwadi are on different branches beyond Kalyan.
- Pay and display: Pay through an available UPI, netbanking or wallet option. Confirm the issued ticket appears inside the RailOne app; ticket examiners do not accept screenshots.
Practical tip: Complete booking before moving towards Kalyan’s platforms, then check the departure indicator for your train’s destination. A ticket booked with the Kalyan station UTS QR code does not identify the correct boarding platform.
