Your book printing price depends on six choices: quantity, page count, size, paper, colours and binding. Because plates and press set-up are shared across the run, the book printing cost per copy falls as the quantity rises.
For a full breakdown of book printing costs — and seven ways to lower them — read our guide Book Printing Cost in India, or see a live price for your specification in the book printing cost calculator.
Hardcover book printing (case binding) gives premium titles, reference books and yearbooks a rigid board cover that lasts for years. We also offer section-sewn, perfect and saddle-stitch binding — compare them in our guide to types of book binding.
Because book printing and binding happen in the same building, there is no transport between printer and binder, fewer delays and one team responsible for the finished book.
As book printers with our own book printing press in Okhla, New Delhi, we handle everything from CTP plates to export cartons. Publishers searching for book printing Delhi and NCR can visit the press and see their job on the machine.
For buyers outside the city, book printing India-wide and for export is the bigger part of our work: books leave our two Delhi NCR units for publishers across India and Africa, quoted FOB Indian port.
Printheal is a printer, not a publisher. Many book publishers in India — and authors working with a self publishing company in India — send their print runs to a printer like us, so the printing price matters to everyone in the chain.
If you are comparing the top book publishers in India or a list of the top 10 book publishers in India, ask each one which printer they use and what binding and paper are included. If you are weighing free book publishers in India or the cheapest self publishing in India, check who pays for printing and how many copies you receive.
