Indian Railway Tickets are sold in the following order:

If the passenger status is marked as WL followed by a number, then the passenger has a waiting list status. Once all available seats on a train are sold, the Indian railway give 1st preference to RACs for railway reservations. When all of the RAC seats are sold, the Indian railway gives 2nd preference to waiting list. The status of the tickets might vary based on a variety of reasons. In case, ticket cancellations by other passengers before preparing a chart then this increases your chances if you have an RAC or Waiting List ticket. RAC/WL ticket holders are also likely to get available seats in different quotas in case if they remain unused.

RAC - In RAC (Reservation Against Cancellation), the passenger is allowed to travel where two passengers share the same berth. In case, if confirmed passenger does not board the train after preparing a chart or till next station, a full berth is allotted to the passenger with RAC ticket.

CNF - The passenger seat has been confirmed (CNF) and the seat will be allotted after preparing a chart.
