SOTC Team

SOTC was established in 1949

SOTC Travel Limited is a step-down subsidiary of Fairfax Financial Holdings Group, held through its Indian listed subsidiary Thomas Cook (India) Limited. SOTC India is a leading travel and tourism company active across various travel segments — Leisure Travel, Incentive Travel and Business Travel.

SOTC was established in 1949. Since then, it has escorted lakhs of travellers across the globe, delivering best-in-class travel experiences. With a rich legacy spanning over seven decades, SOTC continues to be a trusted name in group tours, family holidays, and customized travel solutions.

Today, SOTC operates with a vast network of offices across India and partnerships with travel service providers worldwide, ensuring every journey is seamless, memorable, and enriching.

We move mountains.
Move them closer to offices,
So when workaholics look up,
They see a holiday calling.

We make tides turn.
Turn towards shores,
Where families build sandcastles
And memories.

We make the Northern Lights
Appear a little more south.
So that even those who thought
They'd never see them,
Can witness the magic.
