Hello @YummdudeMohit, perhaps this post can help you

Actually adding categories to the list is not possible for local guides, but you can always send feedback to Google.

Re: How to introduce New Category while adding new place

How to suggest a new category that does not exist (yet) in Google but is in very common usage in my country (India). 

I would like to add the category "Forest Rest House", which are government owned accommodations the public and tourists can rent situated inside public forests and very useful for tourists. Even worse Google is not even accepting some of these entries located in areas outside of cell phone coverage.
