They must be asking for Lower Berth.... etc.
Coupes are alloted in 1AC manually at the time of charting. Go ahead and book on one PNR. You will get a good chance of getting a coupe .. Enjoy :) Good luck and good wishes.

@first blogger :
The important thing here is not of good or bad chance. If it is single independent coupe, then only the blogger is interested to book online or offline. The blogger needs assured answer and that is possible only on personal enquiry at the PRS counter.

In 1AC or FC, note that coupes/4 berth compartments are allocated manually, not by PRS. Only request can be made for coupe. As per the PNR logic, normally 2 people booked in one PNR are given coupe... especially when they are a couple. Hence my answer. Even enquiry at the PRS counter would reveal the same answer. Good wishes.

The normal answer and the assured answer are both different in as much as one can definitely vouch on when Rly authorities who are booking the tickets answer in affirmative as they are accessed to more coach coupe info.
They might make any on the spot earmarking of a coupe for this PNR.
Of course your answer is based on Rule Book, but ... the factor of good chance for single coupe may not encourage the blogger for booking online in the sense that based on uncertainty, if
...
more...
the things don't turn out to be in the way it is expected, then the blogger will be left with only cancellation option.
Under the circumstances, better to go for counter booking with a prior friendly discussion with the PRS officer.

Kapadia Ji even PRS can not give him an assured answered, as this only done at the time of charting. Also a lot of times there may be Divisional officers of the railway who may be traveling in this class and they sent requests for the 2 persons Coupe. It is a pot luck till time of charting.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
