Goyal Brothers Prakashan

Late Shri Kewal Ram Gupta laid the foundation of the Goyal Brothers Prakashan (GBP) sixty-three years ago when India’s aspirations were taking shape. Education was central to it, and there was a dearth of quality learning resources. Realising this need, our founder established the GBP with a vision to make learning accessible to everyone.

We offer online learning tools and resources, school textbooks (k-12), reading guides, supplementary and competitive exam books, novels, premium notebooks, and more to our learner community. For businesses and corporates, our products include calendars, magazines, posters, notebooks, and custom paper stationery.
