How to reach us
+91 89254 44011
The fastest route to a written quote. Send seats, date, route and pickup point and the quote comes back as a PDF, usually inside two working hours.
fnaveedwinmaxi@gmail.com
Best for institutional bookings, purchase orders, contract documents and anything your accounts team needs on file.
What to send so the first quote is the right one
Five things get you a usable number the first time instead of the third.
- Confirmed headcount, including teachers, coordinators, staff and anyone travelling who is not on the main list. We will add the 10 – 15% margin ourselves and tell you what we added.
- Date and times — the reporting time you want at the pickup point and, roughly, when you expect to be back. If the return time is uncertain, say so and we will quote a basis that covers it rather than quoting low and billing extra hours.
- Pickup point and route. The actual street, not just the area. Chennai's access problems are gate-level rather than area-level.
- AC or not, if you already know. If you do not, tell us the journey length and we will recommend, including the occasions when the honest recommendation is the cheaper bus.
- Anything unusual — luggage, elderly passengers, equipment, a temple street, a ghat road, a plant gate. These are the things that change the vehicle rather than the price.
What happens after you send it
Written quote, 2 working hours
A PDF with the vehicle class, the kilometre basis, the extra-km and extra-hour rates, the number of bata days and every excluded line named individually. Not "plus applicable charges".
Questions, if we have them
Sometimes we will ask about a gate, a street or a return time before quoting, because a quote based on a guess is worse than a phone call.
25% advance confirms
By UPI or bank transfer against an invoice. Companies, schools and colleges can confirm on a purchase order instead. The bus and the date are then yours.
Driver and vehicle, 6 pm the day before
Driver's name and mobile number, the registration number and the reporting time, sent to whoever is coordinating at your end.
Balance on completion
Odometer reading at the yard, toll and parking receipts attached, final invoice with 5% GST. You pay the balance when the trip finishes, not before.

Questions we answer daily
How quickly do you send a quote?
Within two working hours, between 6 am and 11 pm, as a written PDF with the vehicle class, kilometre basis, extra-km and extra-hour rates, bata-day count and named exclusions. If we need to check a gate or a street first, we will call you before quoting rather than guessing.
How much advance do you take?
A quarter of the quoted value — 25% — paid by UPI or bank transfer, or a purchase order from a company, school or college. That fixes the vehicle and the date. Everything else is settled after the trip, against the odometer reading and the toll and parking receipts.
What are your working hours?
6 am to 11 pm, every day including Sundays and most holidays, on both the phone and WhatsApp. Buses run outside those hours constantly — a 4 am shift pickup or a midnight return is normal — and there is a contact reachable at any hour for trips in progress.
Do you have a Chennai office address?
Our registered office is 9/5 Subramaniam Road, Ramanathapuram, Coimbatore 641045, and our coaches are garaged in Chennai with pickups across the city. Billing is garage-to-garage from the Chennai yard. For contract work we come to you for the route survey rather than asking you to visit us.
Can you invoice a company or school?
Yes. We quote against a purchase order, raise a tax invoice with our GSTIN at 5% in the institution's name, and attach the trip log or receipts your accounts team needs. If your approval process requires the invoice before travel, tell us at booking and we will arrange it.
What if I need a bus tomorrow?
Ring rather than message. Short-notice work is often possible for minibuses and tempo travellers, less often for 45-seat AC coaches, and rarely in the November to February or January to March peaks. We will tell you straight away what is genuinely available rather than holding you on.
Do you handle bookings in Tamil?
Yes — English, Tamil and Hindi on the phone and on WhatsApp. Quotes are written in English because that is what schools, companies and accounts departments need on file, but the conversation can be in whichever language suits you.
What if my requirement is under 17 seats?
That is below our floor and our sister brand handles it: chennaicarrentalss.com runs the 12 and 14-seat tempo travellers, Innova Crystas and sedans across Chennai. Same group, same written-quote discipline, different fleet. Go there rather than paying for seats you do not need.
