Hi Jayamohan
Congrats on your first post in the forum. Welcome to the same. Hope you have a good time here.
We would be glad to help. Places of interest? Number of drivers? Give us the details of your tentative plan. We definitely, as a community, can pitch in wherever possible.
7th Dec isn't very far either. Let us know your basic places of interest (destination as well as enroute).
From your message I can understand you want to go via Rajasthan/Punjab. Trivandrum - Madurai - Bangalore - Pune - Mumbai - ?? - Himachal ?? - Delhi - Agra (?) - Jhansi - Nagpur - Hyderabad - Bangalore - Madurai - Trivandrum. Is this the broad routes you are thinking about?

Dear sir, As you mentioned, the below is our proposed route.
Trivandrum - Madurai - Bangalore - Pune - Mumbai - ?? - Himachal ?? - Delhi - Agra (?) - Jhansi - Nagpur - Hyderabad - Bangalore - Madurai - Trivandrum.
We may be advised a better route. Our aim is to travel through Maharashtra (Lonavala), Rajasthan (to visit major tourist place only), Punjab and then to Manali.
We are planning to return through Delhi-Agra.
Please send your valuable suggestions

You may do Trivandrum - Madurai - Bangalore - Pune - Thane. Between Pune and Thane you can cover Lonavala.
From Thane you can join NH3 (Bombay Agra road) by going through Thane - Nashik - Sendhwa - Manpur - Ratlam. Now from Ratlam either yo decide to enter Rajasthan via Chittorgarh or Udaipur. You can cover Chittorgarh, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Ajmer, Bikaner on your way. Once in Bikaner then you can enter Punjab via Ganganagar.
From Punjab you can come towards Delhi by covering Kurukshetra, Panipat, Sonipat. From here you can come to Noida and proceed towards Agra covering Mathura on the way.
From Agra you can move towards Jaipur. After covering Jaipur you can go to Sawai Madhopur. From here either you can take back Chittorgarh route towards Mumbai or Indore route towards Mumbai. Please don't go by Gwalior - Jhansi route as roads between Agra and Gwalior are good but once you cross Gwalior then you will come across road widening work with lot of diversion, dust and slow moving trucks.
From Mumbai to can go back to Trivandrum via Bangalore - Madurai.
You need to decide on places (attraction) you want to cover in these route. Based on this you need to plan your days, stopovers and route.
