Business-to-business travel technology company TravClan has raised $5 million in a financing round involving Flipkart, August One and venture-debt provider Trifecta Capital. The company will deploy the capital across its global supply network, artificial intelligence capabilities and destination operations in overseas markets.
The transaction takes TravClan’s total disclosed funding above $11 million. Its investor base includes Leo Capital, The Ventures, Hashed, August One, Flipkart and several angel investors.
TravClan provides booking and operating infrastructure to travel agents, enabling them to source flights, hotels, activities and destination services through a unified platform. More than 15,000 agents across India use the company’s services, with approximately 40% of its business originating in Tier-II and Tier-III cities.
The company processes more than $100 million in annual travel sales and provides destination services across more than 18 markets. It contracts directly with hotels and activity providers while maintaining ground teams in India, Southeast Asia and the Middle East. The model is intended to give travel businesses access to negotiated inventory and local operational support without requiring them to establish separate supplier networks in every destination.
Co-founder and chief executive Arun Bagaria said TravClan’s product strategy is shifting beyond helping travel sellers search for inventory. The company is developing software that can execute parts of the travel workflow, with the longer-term objective of becoming an infrastructure layer on which agencies and other travel businesses can build services.
The fresh funding will support further investment in AI and automation across search, itinerary creation, supplier coordination and destination operations. TravClan is also expected to expand its contracted supply as it enters or deepens operations in additional international markets.
Flipkart’s participation gives the round a strategic component alongside financial investment. The funding also combines equity capital with debt, allowing TravClan to finance technology development and international expansion while retaining flexibility over its ownership structure.
The company’s next phase will focus on scaling a platform built for travel intermediaries rather than competing solely for direct consumer bookings.
