What does Printster charge per page?

A4 black & white is ₹0.60 a page double-sided on 75 gsm and ₹0.85 single-sided, before GST. A5 is ₹0.38 double-sided. At 100 copies or more those drop to ₹0.54 and ₹0.34. Every rate is on our rate card.

Do bulk discounts need a quote request?

No. The lower rate applies automatically once the copy count reaches 100 — A4 black & white double-sided goes from ₹0.60 to ₹0.54 a page without anyone having to ask.

How do you compare against other printing services?

On published prices. Each page in this cluster takes the competitor's own advertised rates, links the source and shows the date we read it. Where a company does not publish a rate — Printo and local shops do not — we say so instead of estimating one.

How often are these figures checked?

Quarterly. Competitor figures were last verified on 31 August 2026, and the next scheduled review is 30 November 2026. Prices change without notice, so check the linked source before ordering.

What sizes and binding do you offer?

A5, A4, A3 and B5 with published per-page rates across 15 paper stocks, and 12 binding types from a ₹2 corner staple to hard binding with golden print on the front and spine at ₹350 per copy.

How we build these pages

Every competitor figure comes from that company’s own public page, with the URL linked and the date we read it shown on the page. We do not repeat prices from third-party listicles. Where a company does not publish a rate, we leave the row blank and explain why rather than estimate one. Printster’s own figures are standard-order rates from our pricing engine and match our published rate card.
