I'm sure Himachal Road Transport run a bus from Chandigarh to Manali. Yup - you can check the times and fares here: http://himachal.gov.in/hrtc/route.asp

There are good buses from Shimla to Manali they leave at 8:00am from each end at a cost of about 350/- and you have to book locally and best the day before the travel.

Here are the e-mail and contacts for a Tour operator that does the booking for the bus from Shimla. Naresh Jishtu Span Tours

He seems a good chap as we have talked about the problems of touts in Shimla and HP tourism problems occasionally. By the way, watch the touts at the bus stands or anywhere as the cheap hotels are a real long walk form town, that's why they are cheap.
