EaseMyTrip launches investment initiative led by Founder Nishant Pitti for startups
EaseMyTrip.com announced the launch of EaseMyTrip 2.0 on Monday, a strategic investment initiative led by Chairman and Founder Nishant Pitti aimed at partnering with high-potential businesses across travel and adjacent sectors. The company will acquire up to 49 per cent equity in selected ventures while allowing founders to retain full operational control.
The shares of Easy Trip Planners Limited were trading at ₹11.02 down by ₹0.20 or 1.78 per cent on the NSE at 2.28 pm.
The investment model focuses on working capital partnerships rather than traditional control-seeking approaches. Partner businesses will gain access to EaseMyTrip’s customer base of over 30 million users, digital marketing ecosystem and pan-India brand presence without surrendering management autonomy.
Target sectors include domestic and international holidays, religious tourism covering destinations like Ayodhya and Kedarnath, student travel, MICE services, luxury travel, chartered flights and last-mile mobility solutions. Adjacent verticals encompass wellness services, travel-linked financial products, insurance, airport services and lifestyle experiences.
EaseMyTrip, which has maintained profitability since its 2008 founding, serves over 26 million users globally through its zero-convenience-fee model. The publicly listed company reported 47 per cent CAGR growth in profits before tax during FY20-24, positioning it among India’s fastest-growing internet companies.
