Corporate Reservations & Confirmations
All reservations and booking requests submitted via our website, email, or corporate desk are subject to written confirmation from Aura Leaf and availability of inventory:
- Booking Confirmation: A reservation is considered confirmed only upon issuance of an official Aura Leaf Confirmation Voucher containing a unique Reference ID and itemized itinerary details.
- Guest Nominations: For corporate bookings, the client company must provide accurate guest names, contact numbers, official email addresses, and expected arrival times at least 24 hours prior to check-in.
- Special Requests: Preferences such as early check-in, late check-out, non-smoking rooms, specific floor levels, or special meal requirements are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed unless expressly confirmed in writing.
Pricing, Taxes & GST Invoicing
We are committed to transparent, competitive, and fully compliant corporate pricing:
- Rates & Quotations: All tariff quotations provided on our portal or proposals are in Indian Rupees (INR) unless expressly stated otherwise, and exclude statutory Goods and Services Tax (GST) unless indicated as tax-inclusive.
- GST Compliance: Aura Leaf issues 100% compliant B2B tax invoices with appropriate SAC/HSN codes. Corporate clients must provide their valid GSTIN and registered legal address at the time of booking to avail Input Tax Credit (ITC). Post-billing GSTIN amendments may not be feasible once invoices are filed on the GST portal.
- Incidental Charges: Room rates cover accommodation and specified inclusions only. Additional expenses (e.g., room service, laundry, telephone calls, mini-bar, airport extra transfers) must be settled prior to check-out unless included under an approved corporate master folio.
GST Input Tax Credit (ITC) Guarantee
All corporate bookings are billed with legitimate GST invoicing reflecting your company’s state-specific GSTIN, ensuring seamless month-end accounting and tax credit reconciliation.
