Why Advance Payment Matters

During normal dates, a small advance (e.g. 20–30%) helps the trust reserve your room and reduces no-shows. During festivals (e.g. Ram Navami, Diwali, long weekends), demand is high and the trust may require full or higher advance payment to lock your booking. Always confirm the exact amount and deadline when you receive your confirmation. Pay only after you have a written confirmation (e.g. WhatsApp or email) from the official number +91 8569816612 or srijanakimahaltrustofficial@gmail.com. Never pay to a number or email that was not given to you directly from the trust’s official channels.

Advance Booking Timelines by Season

• Regular dates: Book 2–4 weeks ahead; advance payment as advised (often 20–30% within 24–48 hours of confirmation).
• Festival and long weekends: Book 1–3 months ahead; full or higher advance may be required. Confirm when you book.
• Group or bulk: For multiple rooms, book early and expect 30–50% advance; confirm with the trust.
• Modifications: If you need to change dates or room type, contact +91 8569816612 as early as possible; changes are subject to availability and the trust’s cancellation and refund policy.

What If Payment Fails or Is Delayed

If your UPI or bank transfer fails, try again and ensure you use the exact details provided by the trust. If the problem continues, call +91 8569816612 and explain; the team can suggest an alternate method or extend the payment deadline if possible. Do not send money to a different account or person. Keep your transaction screenshot and share it only on the official WhatsApp or email once payment is successful. For payment-failure retry tips, see payment failed retry guide.

GST Invoice and Receipts

The trust can provide GST invoice for eligible guests. Share your GST number and business details during booking or at check-in. Ask for a receipt or payment acknowledgement after you pay; keep it until you complete your stay. For more, see GST invoice from Janaki Mahal Trust.
