India's corporate travel landscape has shifted, and the gap between what traditional travel agencies offer and what enterprises actually need has become hard to ignore. Thomas Cook India has long served the corporate sector, but real-time visibility, guaranteed GST compliance, and technology-driven control are requirements that legacy providers struggle to meet at scale. TravelPlus serves 100+ NSE-listed companies and 50+ MNCs with a hotel-first approach to corporate travel management — combining enterprise-grade technology with curated inventory and 24/7 human concierge support built specifically for large Indian enterprises.
Traditional corporate travel agencies operate on models that create real friction for fast-moving businesses. The gaps become visible when enterprises scale their travel programs and need real-time control, automated compliance, and data-driven visibility.
Thomas Cook India has genuine strengths: decades of market presence, physical locations across major cities, and established relationships with hotel chains and airlines. For procurement teams that prefer face-to-face relationship management or need complex group travel handled, that experience has value. The limitation is structural. Thomas Cook's infrastructure and operating model weren't built for the real-time visibility, automated policy enforcement, and ERP-native integration that enterprise travel programs now require.
100+ NSE-listed companies and 50+ MNCs — including AB InBev, Zomato, Titan, Zepto, Emcure, Comviva, TICM, Jyothy Labs, Astral, and VVDN — run their corporate hotel travel on TravelPlus. The platform has been built and refined against the operational requirements of large Indian enterprises, not adapted from a consumer product.
Live dashboards give finance teams and travel managers a current view of bookings, spend, and policy compliance — not a batch report from yesterday.
Policy controls are embedded in the booking flow. Employees book within approved parameters by default — there's no separate compliance check required after the fact.
50,000+ handpicked hotels, curated specifically for business travelers. The focus is on quality accommodations in commercial centers — reliable WiFi, proximity to business districts, business facilities that actually work. As Indian enterprises expand beyond metros, coverage in cities like Coimbatore, Kochi, Indore, and Chandigarh matters. TravelPlus's inventory is built around where Indian business travel actually happens, including tier-2 and tier-3 cities where traditional agency networks are thin.
TravelPlus guarantees GST-compliant invoices on every booking — issued directly by TravelPlus as the reseller, with correct GSTIN mapping, HSN codes, and input tax credit eligibility handled automatically. Finance teams receive clean invoices that integrate directly with ERP systems. No manual corrections, no chasing hotels for reissued invoices. All documentation is maintained in audit-ready form digitally, eliminating the paper trail issues that come with traditional agency billing.
TravelPlus provides 24/7 human concierge support — not a helpdesk chatbot. The support team is trained on each client's travel policies, approval workflows, and compliance requirements, which means faster resolution and fewer escalations. This combination of technology and human support is something most platforms don't attempt. Automation handles scale and speed; human concierge handles the judgment calls that automation can't — last-minute changes, policy exceptions, accommodation issues at 2am in a tier-2 city.
AB InBev manages corporate travel across multiple Indian cities with the visibility and policy control that complex multi-city operations require. TravelPlus handles GST compliance centrally, eliminating the manual finance team intervention that direct hotel invoicing previously required. Travel requests are turned around within 30 minutes — compared to the 6–12 hour response times common with traditional travel management setups.
Zomato's expansion across Indian cities demanded quality hotel options in emerging markets — not just metros. TravelPlus's curated inventory covers tier-2 and tier-3 cities where Zomato was growing, with 24/7 concierge support ensuring booking modifications happen on business time, not office hours.
Comviva required direct integration between their travel platform and existing expense management systems. TravelPlus's API architecture enabled real-time expense tracking that flows directly into Comviva's financial systems, removing the manual data entry layer entirely.
Most enterprise implementations complete within 30 days. The process is structured to minimize disruption to ongoing travel operations.

TravelPlus serves enterprises across multiple industry verticals with tailored solutions.
Tech companies need travel policies that accommodate rapid project changes. TravelPlus supports dynamic policy adjustments and integrates natively with the tech stacks that IT companies already run. The API-first architecture matters here — technology companies expect their tools to talk to each other.
Manufacturing operations span multiple plant locations, often in areas where generic agency networks have thin coverage. TravelPlus's curated inventory includes business hotels near industrial hubs, with the cost control and granular reporting that manufacturing finance teams require.
Strict compliance requirements, audit-ready documentation, and premium service standards for executive travel. TravelPlus's guaranteed GST compliance and reseller invoicing structure meet the documentation requirements that financial services companies face in audits.
Enterprises on TravelPlus typically see 15–20% reduction in overall hotel spend — a compound effect of GST savings through reseller invoicing, negotiated rates, improved policy compliance, and tighter spend control that unmanaged travel programs cannot capture.
TravelPlus delivers modern infrastructure, enterprise scale, hotel-first approach, reseller GST invoicing, and 24/7 human support — replacing the legacy model with technology-driven enterprise travel management.
