WhatsApp Business API for Itarsi's hotels, warehouses and Satpura tour operators
At Itarsi the lines from Delhi, Mumbai, Nagpur and Jabalpur meet, and people and goods stop between trains. A traveller's message opens a 24-hour window; what the hotel or the warehouse sends after it closes needs a template.
For Itarsi's hotels and lodges near the junction, its warehouses, transporters and agro-based units, grain traders, and the taxis and tour operators who serve Pachmarhi, Tawa and Bori: how the 24-hour window works for a traveller between trains, which templates to write in Hindi, and what each message costs in rupees.
See it work
One traveller's 24 hours at Itarsi Junction
Drag the clock through a traveller's stop between two trains. Everything the hotel sends while the window is open is a reply; after it closes, only an approved template may go.
A junction hotel's guests write at odd hours, and most of what the desk sends them is a reply inside the window: rates, directions, the late-night check-in, the bill. Each reply costs the service rate, and no template is needed.
The template comes after the guest has gone: a receipt or a feedback request sent the next day is a utility message, and an offer for a Pachmarhi weekend is marketing that needs the guest's yes. The 24-hour service window explains the rule.

Questions Itarsi businesses ask
Question: Travellers changing trains at Itarsi Junction book rooms at our hotel for a few hours. Is that booking chat charged as templates?
Answer: No. The traveller's first message opens a 24-hour window, and your rates, photos, directions and bill are replies at ₹0.145 each, with no template. A receipt or feedback request sent the next day, after the window has closed, is a utility template at ₹0.19.
Question: Our warehouse near Itarsi stores grain for traders from Harda and Betul. Can each trader get a stock receipt on WhatsApp?
Answer: Yes, for traders who asked for updates. A receipt with the trader's own lot, bags, weight and storage dates is a utility template at ₹0.19. Your stock register can send it through InfiQ's developer API, included on Growth and an add-on on Lite.
Question: Our taxi service takes visitors from Itarsi to Pachmarhi and the Tawa Dam. Can we send the driver's details the evening before?
Answer: Yes. A pickup notice for a trip the visitor booked, with the driver's name, the car number and the pickup point at the station, is a utility template at ₹0.19. If the visitor writes back to change the time, your replies cost ₹0.145 each.
Question: Wheat farmers on the canal-irrigated land around Itarsi ask our firm for the day's rate. Do we need a template to answer?
Answer: No, when the farmer writes first: the rate is a reply inside the 24-hour window, at ₹0.145. A weight and payment slip sent days later, for wheat the farmer has already sold you, is a utility template at ₹0.19, as long as it carries no offer.
Question: Our transport company runs trucks from Itarsi towards Nagpur, Jabalpur and Bhopal. Can customers get loading and delivery updates automatically?
Answer: Yes. Each update about the customer's own consignment is a utility template at ₹0.19, sent from your dispatch system through InfiQ's API with signed webhooks reporting delivery. Write it in Hindi, with a Marathi version for customers on the Nagpur route if they prefer it.
Question: Our hotel near Itarsi station wants to offer past guests a monsoon weekend in Pachmarhi. Can we message them all?
Answer: Only guests who agreed to receive offers. A weekend offer is a marketing template at ₹0.94, and a past stay is not that agreement. Ask at check-in or checkout, record the date and source of each yes, and note that the DPDP Act's consent duties apply from 13 May 2027.
