Further, it acquired a 51% stake in three prominent firms—Guideline Travels Holidays, a Mumbai-headquartered travel management firm; Dook Travels, a Delhi-based integrated travel management company, operating across CIS countries, Turkey, the UAE; and Tripshope Travel Technologies, a travel and leisure solution provider based in Kashmir.
In another move to expand its business, the company opened its offline retail store in Patiala, Punjab. Earlier this year, Easy Trip Planner launched offline storefronts under the franchising model in Patna, followed by in Surat and Jaipur.
