This page sets out how payments work for a booking with Shiv Shankar Holidays. Your confirmation always takes precedence if it states something different.
Accepted methods
- Bank transfer (NEFT, IMPS or RTGS) to the account shown on your invoice.
- UPI to the ID shown on your invoice.
- Cash at either of our Gorakhpur offices, against a receipt.
Schedule
- An advance of 25–50% confirms the booking and lets us block hotels and vehicles.
- The balance is payable before the tour begins, unless agreed otherwise in writing.
- Festival and peak-season bookings may need full payment at the time of booking.
Receipts and invoices
You will receive a receipt for every payment and a final invoice for the tour. Please check the details and tell us straight away if anything needs correcting.
Please confirm before paying
Always confirm our bank or UPI details by calling the number on our Contact page before transferring money. We will never ask you to pay into a personal account belonging to someone you have not dealt with.
