Is my booking confirmed when I submit an enquiry?

An enquiry starts the conversation. Confirmation is issued in writing for services secured after the agreed payment. Availability and prices may change until confirmation.

What should I check before paying?

Check names, dates, room or vehicle category, inclusions, exclusions, taxes, total price, deadlines and cancellation conditions. Ask for written clarification if anything is unclear.

How much advance is required?

Your quotation states the actual advance. Holiday bookings ordinarily require 30%–50%; flights and non-refundable services may require full payment. The usual balance deadline is 14 days before departure, unless your quotation says otherwise.

How can I pay safely?

Use the official payment route confirmed by Prasthan and obtain a receipt. Verify unexpected changes to bank details using a known contact. Never share banking passwords, PINs, CVVs or OTPs.
