The Delhi government has fixed 31August as deadline to tour operators, travel agents, excursion agents and tourist transport operators operating in Delhi to apply to be registered.With this, the licence for conducting business has become mandatory and violators would have to face the consequences. The fee for the licence and renewal is INR 5000 for five years.In the past, operators and trade bodies had taken the stand that those who have already been approved by the Ministry of Tourism, need not apply for the registration but the huge advertisement in the papers on June 10 makes it clear that ‘any person carrying on this business within the jurisdiction of the National Capital Territory of Delhi without a proper license under the Rules or in violation of provision in the said rules shall be proceeded against as per provisions of the said Rules.’All those who had applied earlier have to now apply afresh, along with additional fee of INR 3000, as the validity period of the licence has been increased from one year to five years. Implementing the new rules may be difficult as several travel agents are registered in Delhi but are actually doing business in the nearby areas, such as Noida or Gurgaon.
