Correct use of transactions in SQL Server

Add a try/catch block, if the transaction succeeds it will commit the changes, if the transaction fails the transaction is rolled back:

BEGIN TRANSACTION [Tran1]

  BEGIN TRY

      INSERT INTO [Test].[dbo].[T1] ([Title], [AVG])
      VALUES ('Tidd130', 130), ('Tidd230', 230)

      UPDATE [Test].[dbo].[T1]
      SET [Title] = N'az2' ,[AVG] = 1
      WHERE [dbo].[T1].[Title] = N'az'

      COMMIT TRANSACTION [Tran1]

  END TRY

  BEGIN CATCH

      ROLLBACK TRANSACTION [Tran1]

  END CATCH
