Nurtured from the seed of a single great idea - to empower the traveller - MakeMyTrip went on

to pioneer the entire online travel industry in India. MakeMyTrip has revolutionised the travel

industry over the years. This is the story of MakeMyTrip, Indias Online Travel Leader.

MakeMyTrip.com, Indias leading online travel company was founded in the year 2000 by Deep

Kalra. Created to empower the Indian traveller with instant booking and comprehensive choices,

the company began its journey in the US-India travel market. It aimed to offer a range of best-

value products and services along with cutting-edge technology and dedicated round-the-clock

customer support.

After consolidating its position in the market as a brand recognised for its reliability and

transparency, MakeMyTrip followed its success in the US by launching its India operations in

2005.

With the foresight to seize the opportunities in the domestic travel market, brought on by a slew

of new airlines, MakeMyTrip offered travellers the convenience of online travel bookings at

rock-bottom prices. Rapidly, MakeMyTrip became the preferred choice of millions of travellers

who were delighted to be empowered by a few mouse clicks!

MakeMyTrips rise has been lead by the vision and the spirit of each one of its employees, for

whom no idea was too big and no problem too difficult. With untiring innovation and

determination, MakeMyTrip proactively began to diversify its product offering, adding a variety

of online and offline products and services. MakeMyTrip also stayed ahead of the curve by

continually evolving its technology to meet the ever changing demands of the rapidly developing

global travel market.

Steadily establishing itself across India and the world, MakeMyTrip simultaneously nurtured the

growth of its offline businesses like its franchises and affiliates simultaneously, augmenting the

brands already strong retail presence further.

Today, MakeMyTrip is much more than just a travel portal or a famous pioneering brand - it is a

one-stop-travel-shop that offers the broadest selection of travel products and services in India.
