IRCTC website 'hacked', personal details of lakhs feared stolen ??

Personal data of around 1 crore customers is feared to have been stolen from the server of the e-ticketing portal Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC), thus raising fears of safety and security.
IRCTC is India's largest e-commerce website, lakhs of transactions are conducted every day. Customers provide details like Pan Card numbers while filling up online reservation forms.

Thank god, I always skeptical in using the debit/credit card for online purchase, I will order only the products which is eligible for COD.

But I doubt secured websites like https wont have ability to see or store any card details.

But it appears more as a damage control exercise.

As for card details, they have a tie up with Union Bank for a Railway card (a debit card) and they remember your favorite payment options. It is more convenient to pay by a debit card than net banking.
