In this case PNR number is single. What is the relevant rule for such case? I am quoting on such blog appeared in 2011 in this website's forum for the same question. I am confused for what to advise my son?

Authorization to board the train:
Passengers with Confirmed E ticket are permitted to board the train.Their names will appear on the chart.
Names of passengers with Partially Waitlisted/Confirmed/RAC will appear on the chart (including the Waitlisted passengers). They are allowed to board the train.
PNRs having fully waitlisted status will be dropped and names of the passengers will not appear on the chart. They are not allowed to board the train. If full waitlisted passengers are found travelling, they will be treated as without ticket and charged as per extant Railway rules.
