    Trying to obtain a tourist visa for India.

    Hi,

    I am looking for some advice on getting a visa for India this summer. I can not get to the Embassy in person and was looking for a reputable company to handle this for me. Can anyone suggest anything?

    Thank you.

    You can try through this website

    I believe it is an online process now. ATB.

    Unfortunately you still have to go down to East TST in person. The online application is just an online portal for you to fill in your details. You still have to go down there to either drop off or collect your passport.

    I tried last year to get somebody to help me with this and was told categorically that you have to physically go there.

    What's your nationality?

    Certain nationalities can get visa on arrival, although at present that list is quite limited.

    Though I did read they are looking to extend that.

    Not much help to the OP I know, but worth keeping in mind for future reference.
