Built on the belief that honest guidance shouldn’t cost more.
Hike Visa Consultants was founded by Rajesh Bansal with a single, straightforward mission: to give students and families in Chandigarh access to the same quality of visa and study abroad guidance that larger, more expensive consultancies were charging a premium for — without the overselling, the inflated fees, or the corners being cut on documentation.
Over years of work in the visa and immigration space, Rajesh observed a pattern that troubled him. Families were being guided toward inaccurate or misleading documentation — often without understanding the risks this posed to their applications, their future visa history, and their children’s education goals. Students were applying for institutions or programs that weren’t the right fit, advised more by an agent’s incentives than by the applicant’s genuine needs.
Hike Visa was built as the alternative. Every file we submit is built on genuine, verifiable documents. Every consultation starts with an honest assessment of your chances, not a sales pitch. Every fee is stated upfront, in full, before any work begins.
Today, operating from our office at SCO 99–100, Sector 17B, Chandigarh, we handle study visas, tourist and Schengen visas, spouse and dependent visas, Canada Super Visa applications, Australia Subclass 462, and Canada onshore services for students and families — both offshore applicants from Chandigarh and Punjab, and onshore clients already in Canada who need permit extensions or transfers.
