When you book an eticket, and you do not travel on a confirmed ticket, you can ask for refund of the amount by filing TDR online by giving the PNR number. Here are the rules from irtc.co.in
quote
e-Tickets can be cancelled on Internet at this website till Chart preparation of the train .Cancellations are not
allowed at face to face Railway Counters.

If the user wishes to cancel his e-Ticket, he can do so till the time of
chart preparation for the train, which is normally 4 hours before the scheduled departure of the train from the
train originating station. For train starting up to 12 noon the chart preparation is usually done on the previous night. He
can log on to www.irctc.co.in and go to "Booked Tickets" link and select the ticket to be cancelled and can initiate
the cancellation by selecting the passengers to be cancelled. Cancellation would be confirmed
online and the refund would be credited back to the account used for booking as for normal Internet tickets.
If there is any partial cancellation of ticket, please ensure that a fresh e-reservation slip (Electronic Reservation Slip) is
printed separately as done for the original ticket.
To take you step by step and familiarize you with the procedure
for canceling of e-tickets, please click HERE
Cancellation of e-Tickets before chart preparation of the train:

If a confirmed ticket is cancelled more than 24 hrs before the scheduled departure of the train, flat
cancellation charges shall be deducted @ Rs.70/- for AC First Class/Executive Class, Rs.60/- for AC 2
Tier/AC 3 Tier/First Class/AC Chair car, Rs.40/- for Sleeper Class and Rs.20/- for Second Class.
Cancellation charges are per passenger.

If a confirmed ticket is cancelled within 24 hrs and upto 4 hours before the scheduled departure of the train,
cancellation charges shall be 25% of the fare subject to the minimum flat rate mentioned in the above clause.

Less than 4 hours before the schedule departure of the train upto chart preparation of the train, 50% of the
fare paid subject to the minimum cancellation charges.

Note the Chart preparation time is the time for the chart preparation from the Train Originating Station or
from the Previous chart Preparation station.
Cancellation of e-Tickets after the preparation of Reservation charts:
For Normal User:- E-ticket cannot be cancelled after chart preparation. Users are requested to use the online TDR filing for such cases and track Status of the refund case through
tracking service provided by IRCTC. Such claims can be filed from next date from the journey date to 30 days from the date of journey. For filing online TDR , select

fURTHER TO my posting please note that waitlisted tickets are automatically cancelled when they still continue to be on the Waitlist on the Chart. There is no need for filing TDR. Where it is RAC you can cancel the tickets upto chart preparation. After Chart preparation, you will have to follow the procedure as outlined above. Good wishes again.

"Cancel e-ticket" option can be used only upto chart preparation. "File TDR" is used to get refund after preparation of chart for confirmed/RAC tickets if they have been unused.
According to me, the only exception when "cancel e-ticket" option can be used after preparation of chart is in case the train is marked as "CANCELLED" in PRS due to breaches, floods, accidents etc.
e-Ticket can be cancelled within three days of the scheduled departure of the train.
