MyBiz MakeMyTrip alternative for enterprise India: TravelPlus vs MyBiz corporate travel platform
MyBiz by MakeMyTrip works well as an entry point for companies moving away from ad-hoc booking. But for NSE-listed companies and MNCs managing corporate hotel travel at scale — complex approval workflows, GST compliance across multiple states, ERP integration, real-time financial visibility — it runs into structural limits that a consumer-adapted platform can't overcome. 100+ NSE-listed companies and 50+ MNCs have moved to TravelPlus for exactly this reason.
Key takeaways
- Enterprise-built, not adapted: TravelPlus was designed for large Indian corporations — not retrofitted from a consumer product
- GST reseller invoicing: TravelPlus is the only platform in India that issues reseller invoices directly, handling all hotel GST submission on the client's behalf. MyBiz provides individual hotel invoices — enterprises reconcile GST with each hotel separately
- 25,000+ active handpicked hotels: Curated for business travel across tier-1 through tier-3 cities
- 24/7 human concierge, 30-minute response: Trained on each client's policies — not a consumer support queue
- No platform or implementation fee: Returns are visible from the first booking
Quick Comparison
The consumer vs enterprise divide
MyBiz benefits from MakeMyTrip's brand recognition and consumer travel experience. Employees may already be familiar with the interface from personal bookings. For smaller companies making the step from ad-hoc travel to structured booking, that familiarity has value. The structural limits emerge at enterprise scale. Large Indian corporations need:
- Multi-tier policy enforcement: Grade-wise hotel budgets, preferred hotel categories, advance booking requirements, multi-level approvals based on employee level, destination, and spend. Consumer platforms enforce policy retrospectively — TravelPlus enforces it at the point of booking. An employee can't complete a non-compliant reservation.
- GST compliance that doesn't create work: MyBiz provides hotel GST invoices directly to the client. For an enterprise with hundreds of monthly bookings across multiple hotels and states, that means reconciling GST individually with every hotel — chasing corrections, managing ITC manually, handling interstate tax complexity booking by booking. TravelPlus issues reseller invoices directly, handling all hotel GST submission on the client's behalf. Finance teams receive one clean invoice per booking. Individual hotel reconciliation is eliminated entirely, delivering approximately 10% savings on GST compliance costs and reducing travel expense close from 10 days to 2 days.
- ERP integration: SAP, Oracle, Tally — direct connectors, not manual exports. When expense data flows automatically from booking into financial systems, month-end close doesn't require assembling records from a separate travel platform.
- Real-time visibility: CFOs and finance teams need live spend data by department, cost center, and employee level — not batch reports from the previous period. MyBiz's reporting has been likely built for individual travelers, not enterprise finance teams running budget oversight.
TravelPlus: purpose-built for enterprise India
500+ enterprises, including 100+ NSE-listed companies and 50+ MNCs — AB InBev, Zomato, Titan, Zepto, Emcure, Comviva, TICM, Jyothy Labs, Astral, and VVDN. Net GTV retention of 158–201% across cohorts reflects consistent expansion after implementation. Every feature has been built and refined against the operational realities of large Indian enterprises.
1. 25,000+ active handpicked hotels
Curated specifically for corporate travel — business district proximity, reliable WiFi, business facilities, and consistent service standards are the criteria. Coverage extends to tier-2 and tier-3 cities where enterprises are expanding, with negotiated corporate rates through collective booking volume across 100+ NSE-listed company clients.
2. 24/7 human concierge
Not a ticket queue. Human support, around the clock, trained on each client's specific policies, preferred properties, and escalation procedures. Travel requests handled within 30 minutes — compared to the 6–12 hours typical with traditional travel management setups. For a senior executive with an accommodation problem at 11pm before a morning meeting, that gap matters.
3. Enterprise financial controls
Real-time budget monitoring: Live spend against approved budgets by department, employee, and project code — with alerts before limits are reached, not reports after they're exceeded. Multi-dimensional reporting: Spend by cost center, employee grade, trip purpose, and advance booking periods. Reports formatted for CFOs, board presentations, and audit requirements without manual reformatting. ERP integration: SAP, Oracle, and Tally with pre-built connectors. Travel expenses post automatically into financial systems with correct cost center allocation.
Cost optimization
Enterprises on TravelPlus typically see 15–20% reduction in overall hotel spend — combining GST savings through reseller invoicing (~10%), negotiated rates from collective booking volume, and the policy compliance improvements that come from managed travel replacing ad-hoc booking. TravelPlus charges no platform or implementation fee. Returns start from the first booking.

Frequently asked questions
How does TravelPlus ensure GST compliance compared to MyBiz?
The difference is the invoicing model. MyBiz provides hotel GST invoices to the client — one per hotel, per booking. Enterprises reconcile GST individually with each hotel across each state. TravelPlus issues reseller invoices directly, handling all hotel GST submission on the client's behalf. GSTIN mapping, HSN codes, ITC eligibility, and interstate tax are processed automatically. Finance teams receive one clean invoice per booking that integrates directly with ERP systems. This is the only model of its kind in the Indian market and delivers approximately 10% savings on GST compliance costs.
