Ask before you sign

  1. Speak to at least 3 franchisees who have run an outlet for 2+ years and see their actual monthly sales and profit — a franchisor making money doesn't mean its franchisees do.
  2. Ask for every upfront payment in writing — deposit, onboarding, equipment or stock — and which parts are refundable.
  3. Ask exactly how your margin or commission is calculated, when it's paid, and whether the brand can change it.

The top complaint, dated Oct 2013 and marked resolved in Aug 2020, is from a customer who alleges hotel, houseboat and vehicle changes on a Kashmir trip and calls it breach of contract and fraud (allegation only; no company reply shown). Other posts we read (2014, 2015) complain about hotel and pickup quality, and a 2018 post asks about a trip rebooking; posts on the page run 2013 to 2018.

    Franchise page details look partly dated

    The page requires 'a fax line', asks for a signed 'Franchise Agreement' whose text is not published, names the company 'Bharat Booking Holidays India Pvt Ltd.' in the body, and lists two different WhatsApp numbers on the page.

About the Brand

Brand USP

Commission-based travel-agency franchise from a Manali company that says it works with 10,000+ agents (brand claim).

HeadquartersManali, Himachal Pradesh
Bharat Booking Holidays is a Manali-based travel company. Its franchise page invites 'dedicated franchise agents' to run a travel-agency outlet selling domestic and international packages, hotels, flights, visas, cruises, MICE tours and travel insurance, and the site claims 'Trusted by 10,000+ Agents' and '20+ Years of Travel Expertise' (brand claims; the page names no outlet count). The page's terms: a non-refundable 'Brand Royalty Fee of INR 3,00,000 for 2 years', an optional interest-free refundable floating deposit of at least Rs 2 lakh, a 'Capital Investment of Rs. 10 to 15 Lakhs which is exclusive of the setup cost' (so it is not a full cost), an outlet of 250-1,000 sq ft on a main road (fundamental requirement: at least 400 sq ft and two executive staff), the franchisee bearing 25% of website promotion costs, and no credit from the company (advance payment or a bank guarantee). The franchisee is paid commission on bookings: 5% international packages, 8% domestic packages, 7% hotels, 3% of basic fare on international flights, 25% on overseas travel insurance and 4% on Europe rail packages. What to watch: no investment figure that covers fit-out is published; the page still mentions a fax line, so parts look dated; income depends entirely on booking volume and no earnings, payback or outlet figures are published. One consumer-complaint site lists 51 customer complaints against the company, 9 of them marked resolved (unverified allegations posted by users; the posts we read date from 2013 to 2018). The site also claims '20+ Years of Travel Expertise' although the registered company was incorporated in 2010. Company-data mirrors show the company Active with an AGM held on 30 September 2025; one mirror (Falconebiz) shows indicative percentage changes only (net profit down about 57% and revenue up about 43%); the year and the amounts are behind a paywall and we did not read the filing, so this says nothing certain about profit or loss. Mirrors list two registered bank charges (one to State Bank of India, Rs 5.2 crore, created 2019); a registered charge is not the same as debt outstanding. Filings were not read.
