IRCTC portal has recently change their website look and feel. Earlier it was easy to select a different boarding station, if you are booking your ticket from station other than the boarding station. Some people are assuming this feature has been removed from http://irctc.co.in/ portal, but no, this service is still there just the appearance of the option has been changed.
There are two way to change the boarding station or boarding point of your journey.

You have to just click on the red text "Change Boarding Station?" and a new window will popup which will give you option to select your boarding point. Please refer the below screen shots.
