From a Laptop in the Hills to ₹1.1 Cr Revenue — How Tanarix Private limited is taking Northeast India to the World

When a data scientist from the tech world and a mountain-loving people’s guy teamed up in the hills of Darjeeling, they didn’t just start a travel company — they sparked a movement.

Meet Tanmay Das (M.Tech in Data Science) and Arindam Sinha, the co-founders behind Himalayan Rhapsody and the rising startup Tanarix Private Limited. What began as a dream between two friends is today a fast-scaling venture that’s putting Northeast India on the global travel map — and turning serious profit along the way.

From Quitting IT to Hitting Crores

Tanmay Das had a comfortable IT job and a promising future in tech. But he also had a vision — one that didn’t fit within office walls. So, he took a bold leap, left his career behind, and began a new chapter with just a laptop and a dream.

By his side was Arindam Sinha — a man so committed to connecting with the local community that he learned Nepali to spark the movement directly along with the homestay owners, Associations, and Community elders.

Together, they launched Himalayan Rhapsody, and within just a couple of years, the venture turned into a multi-crore success story.

The Numbers Tell the Story:

• ₹1.1 Cr+ annual revenue
• 14 salaried employees
• 400+ partnered homestays and hotels
• Multiple clients using their tech, CRM, and sales automation tools
• Selected in NASSCOM’s 10,000 Startups
• Representing Northeast Tourism, Tribal Village Development Model at SATTE Delhi 2025.
• Active collaboration with innovation hubs like IIM Bangalore, IIT Mandi, JSS STEP Noida, IIM Kolkata & others

More Than Travel — A Full Travel Tech Company

Unlike typical travel operators, Tanmay and Arindam took a tech-first approach. Under Tanarix Private Limited, they now offer:

• Custom-built CRM & sales automation platforms
• Booking engines and hotel websites
• Digital marketing tools for travel agents

In-house travel management software for seamless bookings and customer engagement, Hotels, homestays, and agencies across India are now their clients, buying software and marketing solutions that were born from real travel pain-points.

Grounded in Community, Scaling Globally

Even as their brand grows, their hearts remain in the hills. Through their platform, they've helped countless rural families boost their income — by bringing year-round tourism to lesser-known villages and improving local homestay visibility online.

It’s tourism, yes — but with a deep focus on community upliftment, sustainable livelihoods, and preserving local culture.

Coming Up: Roamix International

Next on the horizon? Roamix International — their new global brand offering curated experiences in:

• Dubai
• Bali
• Thailand
• Singapore & Malaysia
• Europe (launching soon)

And powering all of this is their in-house tech — travel software developed not in Silicon Valley, but in the heart of the Eastern Himalayas.

Local Roots, Global Wings

From a small hill town to global ambition, Tanmay Das and Arindam Sinha have built more than a company. They’ve built a movement — one that blends tech, tourism, and tradition into something truly powerful.

Their journey is proof that when passion meets purpose — and a laptop — magic happens.
