How do I get to Valsad when online tickets only take me to Surat?
I want to travel from Mahesana to Valsad by train #16209 on 02/09/2016. On the Indian Railways web site, ticket availability is only up to Surat, which I booked. What do I have to do to journey further to Valsad, a short distance from Surat? Can I purchase an additional ticket from the train conductor, without penalty? If not, do I disembark at Surat and purchase a ticket in the station there?

You were shouting, using all caps and little punctuation; the changes were to make it easier to read. If I have changed your meaning, you can undo the edits.

Probably the train you have booked doesn't go to Valsad. Surat to Valsad is approximate an hour train ride and trains are available frequently.
You can either pre-book your Surat to Valsad ticket on IRCTC or get general ticket from Surat station upon arrival. It won't be very difficult to get ticket from Surat station, however to be on safe side better pre-book the ticket online.
