Kamaldeep Singh | Entrepreneur
Kamaldeep Singh arrived in Australia in 2008 with his family, and says what he loves about his newfound home is that his children can roam free and without fear.
As an Indian Australian business entrepreneur, he says he is proud of what he has managed to achieve in the last few years. “It is never easy to start your own business, whether you are an Indian or an Australian, so I feel extremely proud of the achievements that my company has achieved in the recent years. We are always happy to support the Indian community, to gain respect and acknowledgment from the Indian Australian community is extremely humbling. It also drives to perform better,” he says.
Kamaldeep, who was a travel sales consultant in India, turned into a travel entrepreneur in Australia, the single most important moment in his career being the day his daughter was born, because he believes it heralded a new beginning for him. “The day she was born, my struggles to open a travel agency ended. The business loan I was refused thrice got approved and today I have a successful business,” says Kamaldeep, who founded Travel Care.
His piece of advice to budding entrepreneurs is that a good idea does not guarantee success. “A lot of people have ideas. The key to success is in the execution of that idea and that’s where your focus needs to be,” he says.
The way I see it
Growth… Cannot be measurable or defined. For a small business owner like me, growth is continuously improving myself, and making sure we make our mark in the Industry
Business mantra… A business will only thrive when you have a team that feels comfortable with the challenges and vision of the company
Favourite quote… There are no secrets to success, it is a result of preparation hard work and learning from failures

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Thank you for your support.
