Townscript is an event management and ticketing platform founded in Bangalore, India. It enables organisers to create, promote, and manage events — from small meetups and workshops to large conferences and marathons — with online registration, customisable ticket types (early bird, VIP, economy), integrated payment gateways, and real-time attendee analytics. The platform is present in 27+ countries including India, US, Canada, Indonesia, and Singapore. Key features include drag-and-drop event page creation, customisable registration forms, multiple ticket categories with discount codes, direct payment transfers to organisers, social media promotion tools, email campaigns, and a mobile app for on-the-go management. Townscript also supports event check-ins via QR codes, ticket transfers, cancellations, and automated refund processing. The platform has evolved into Townhall for hybrid event capabilities. Pricing follows a per-ticket model: 1.99% + $2 per paid ticket, plus a 2.9% domestic card processing fee (3.9% for international cards). Free events have no charges. This is competitive compared to Eventbrite's 3.7% + $1.79 per ticket in India. There's no monthly subscription or setup fee, making it accessible for one-off event organisers. Townscript is best suited for Indian event organisers running meetups, workshops, conferences, treks, and college fests who want a simple setup with INR payment support. Large enterprise event teams needing advanced features like multi-track agendas, virtual event studios, or deep CRM integrations may find platforms like Hopin or Eventbrite more feature-rich.

Eternal Limited
District is Eternal Limited's (formerly Zomato) going-out app for movie tickets, live events, dining and sports-venue bookings, launched November 2024, three months after Eternal bought Paytm's ticketing arm — Paytm Insider and TicketNew — for Rs 2,048 crore. It's the first challenger in two decades with real distribution behind it against BookMyShow, though its cinema and event coverage still trails outside major metros.
Zoho Corporation
Zoho Backstage is a Chennai-built all-in-one event management platform for in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. Drag-and-drop multi-language website builder, visual agenda, tiered ticketing, sponsor portals, branded mobile app, plus live polls and Q&A. Free tier; subscriptions $199–$499/month or pay-per-event from $299. Best for Indian conference and corporate-training organisers wanting Cvent-style features without the price.
Bigtree Entertainment
BookMyShow's per-ticket convenience fee is non-refundable — even when the event is cancelled — and is only shown at the checkout screen. Cinema tickets can be cancelled at many (not all) screens 20 minutes to 4 hours before showtime, refunding 50-75% of the base ticket price but never the fee. India's largest ticketing platform, run by Mumbai-based Bigtree Entertainment; District, by Eternal (Zomato), is now its first real rival.
CleverTap
CleverTap is an all-in-one customer engagement and retention platform from Mumbai, founded in 2013. It unifies real-time analytics, AI-powered segmentation, journey orchestration, and omnichannel messaging (push, in-app, email, SMS, WhatsApp) in a single dashboard. Processes 100B+ events monthly for HDFC Bank, Swiggy, PhonePe, and Groww. Best for mobile-first product and growth teams. Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for Personalization Engines.
