You can choose from any of the following 3 itineraries.

Kolkata

--------------------------------------…
TWO
Same as ONE. Add a visit to Taj Mahal. Here the cost will go up as you have to take a flight to Agra. and other expenses. If you are returning home via Delhi. You reach Delhi a few days early. Visit Taj Mahal in Agra. then return.
Taj Mahal

--------------------------------------…
THREE
You finish your business in Kolkata and make Delhi your base before returning home.
Now think of a triangle. If Delhi is at the top corner of the triangle, then Taj Mahal (in Agra) is in the right corner of the triangle and Jaipur (in Rajasthan) in the left corner. In the triangle you will find, Amritsar. Outside the triangle in the right, Shimla, hill station will greet you.
This itinerary will be most costliest one among the three. If you have not made 1st class arrangements and reservations / advance bookings, then your holiday will be very disappointing as your duration of stay is very short and time is very tight.

--------------------------------------…
Now 1st decide the best itinerary that suits you the most. Then if your are base is in Kolkata, that is option One and Two, contact your Hotel Manager and tell him to make arrangements and advance reservations / bookings.
Otherwise the manger of Delhi hotel where you stay in the option Three.
I suggest that you please go through all the links and then decide on which itinerary to choose.
--------------------------------------…
My personal suggestion will be wherever you go, go once to the Taj Mahal. Its beauty is not comparable with any other structure in the world. But if you have seen Statue of Liberty and Eiffel Tower. You will be more pleased.
