What Shillong customers print most

Across our own orders delivered to Shillong, the most common job is PDF Print, followed by Paperback / softcover / softback Books, Hardbound / Hardback Books. A typical pdf print order from Shillong runs about 126 pages in 14 copies. The binding most often chosen here is loose sheets with no binding, followed by soft cover (perfect) binding. Every one of these is priced from the same rate card below.

Soft binding and paperback printing in Shillong

Soft cover binding — also called perfect binding or soft binding — glues the pages into a wrapped colour cover with a flat, printed spine. It is the format most people mean by a paperback, and it is the second most ordered job we deliver to Shillong after plain document printing.

Soft cover binding is ₹110 per copy at 1 to 50 copies, ex-GST, on top of the per-page printing cost. It suits anything from about 40 pages upward — below that the spine is too thin to hold a square edge, and a spiral or centre staple is the better choice. Soft cover adds 1 to 2 working days to production, so allow for that against your deadline.

Hardbound and thesis binding delivered to Shillong

Hard binding wraps the block in a rigid board case. It is what most Indian universities require for a submitted thesis or dissertation, and it is a regular order from Shillong.

Hard binding is ₹250 per copy, ex-GST. Golden print on the front is ₹275, and golden print on the front and spine — the specification many departments ask for — is ₹350. All three add 1 to 2 working days to production. If your department has published a binding, cover colour or margin specification, check it before you order: our university requirement pages list the sourced specifications for a number of Indian institutions.

Thesis and dissertation printing for Shillong

Thesis orders from Shillong are usually A4, black and white, printed double-sided on 75 GSM, and hard bound. At the standard rate that is ₹0.60 a page for a document over 20 pages, plus ₹250 a copy for hard binding, ex-GST.

Submit a print-ready PDF with the fonts embedded so the layout cannot shift, and order early enough to absorb the 3 to 5 working days of production plus 1 to 2 more for hard binding. Departments frequently specify cover colour, spine text and margins, so confirm those before printing rather than after.

Why order printing online in Shillong instead of finding a shop

Good print and binding is not always easy to find locally in Shillong, and quality varies between counters. Ordering online gives you the same equipment and the same rate card as any other city: upload the file, see the price before paying, and it is delivered in 7 to 10 working days.

Binding is the part that is hardest to get locally - spiral, soft cover and hard binding all come from the same rate card here, with no minimum order. Typical courier transit to Shillong is about 5 to 6 days once the job leaves our facility, on top of 3 to 5 working days of production.
