A great idea born at the right time is not just bound to succeed but it also becomes a trend-setting revolution of sorts. MakeMyTrip.com began as a great idea and has gone on to pioneer the online travel industry in India. The MakeMytrip.com story serves as an inspiring case for us and for our partners.
MakeMyTrip.com was launched in the year 2000 for the booming 'USA to India' travel market. It empowered NRIs with unmatched convenience of a 24X7 online travel portal and travel consultancy support. It was niche and we hit early success and then launched India operations in September, 2005 with over six years of profitability in real time bookings of flights, hotels, holidays and car rentals in the US.
Since its inception, it has been growing at a fast pace to emerge as the foremost travel website in the US to India market. MakeMyTrip.com commands a 4% share of this NRI market, which is pegged at Rs. 4500 crore (USD 1 billion).
MakeMyTrip.com crossed Rs. 562 crores (USD 125 million) in current fiscal year, which is approximately 180% growth from last year's registered sales of Rs. 200 crores (USD 42 million). They also acquired 1 million customers in 2007. The projected turnover for 2007?2008 fiscal year ending March 2008 is Rs 1260 crores (USD 280 million), which is 124% growth from the previous year.
