Bookingjini has grown immensely since its inception, and we look forward to furthering our growth to reach new heights in the coming years and become the number one one-stop destination for hoteliers,” shared Sibasish Mishra, founder, Bookinjini.

“India’s startup ecosystem has grown tremendously in recent years and witnessing a startup from a Tier-II city in the SaaS segment having such a growth trajectory as Bookingjini is nothing short of remarkable. Bookingjini has truly established its presence in nearly every state in the country and has also expanded beyond India’s borders. We are pleased that the platform’s recent fundraising has resulted in an increase in valuation for our investors. Bookingjini no doubt has the potential to grow and scale further and we are confident that they will soon be an industry leader,” said Nandini Mansinghka, co-founder and chief executive officer, Mumbai Angels Network.

Aiming to help hotels convert browsers to customers, Bookingjini, a Bhubaneshwar-based startup, was founded in 2017 with the Odisha Tourism Development Corporation at their Bhubaneshwar and Puri properties. The same year, the startup received a grant worth INR 20 lakh from Startup Odisha a. Since then, it has expanded its offerings to hotel distribution, customer outreach, revenue generation, marketing, and more. Looking to emerge as the go-to growth engine for the hotel industry, Bookingjini anchors on four key principles – making travel faster, more affordable, and better with cutting-edge technology and acting as a catalyst for every traveler’s story.

“This is a superpower in the world of hospitality because this is not only a guest management system but also a distribution system, a property management system, and guest delight system which is unparalleled from what I've seen,” added Kapil Chopra, chairman Eazydiner and founder and chief executive officer, Postcard chain of hotels.

The platform is currently backed by Mumbai Angels Network, Neotech Hub, and TiE Angels and looks to close FY22 with an ARR of INR 10 crore. Today they provide their solution to Kerala Tourism and Tamandu Tourism as well.
