Printing & Binding for Gujarat Technological University (GTU)

GTU (Gujarat Technological University) specifies: five hard copies are submitted, bound, including all certificates in original. Printster prints and binds to that specification and delivers to Ahmedabad in 5–10 working days, with black & white from ₹0.60 a page and hard binding from ₹250 a copy. GTU's Ph.D. submission guidelines set the copy count and deadline, and give A4/12 pt/1.5 spacing for the synopsis, but do not state a binding style, cover colour, spine or thesis margins.

Gujarat Technological University, headquartered in Chandkheda, Ahmedabad, affiliates over 450 engineering, pharmacy, MBA, architecture, and diploma institutions across Gujarat. GTU students do not attend a single campus — they study at affiliated colleges throughout Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, and dozens of smaller cities. What they share is a common set of semester-end submission requirements: engineering project reports, lab practical journals, minor and major project documents, and seminar reports, all following GTU's prescribed format with the university seal on the cover page. Printster lets students from any GTU-affiliated college upload their project PDFs, choose binding, and get printed copies delivered to their college city. B&W printing starts at ₹0.60/page, spiral binding from ₹40, and perfect binding from ₹110. Payment online via UPI, card, or net banking.

Institution type: State University, City: Ahmedabad, Gujarat; delivery: 5–10 working days.

BTech and Diploma Engineering Project Reports

GTU's final-year engineering project (FYP) requires a bound report submitted in the prescribed GTU format: title page, certificate, abstract, table of contents, chapters, bibliography, and plagiarism declaration. These run 80 to 120 pages. Double-sided B&W printing with perfect binding (from ₹110) is the standard final submission format. Spiral binding is used for mid-semester progress reviews and committee presentations.

Lab Manuals and Practical Journals

GTU's Engineering, Pharmacy, and Architecture programmes require regular lab practical submissions. Lab manuals — sometimes pre-printed with observation tables and blank answer sections — are issued at the start of each term. Printster can print customised lab manual PDFs for individual batches or personal copies, spiral bound for easy lay-flat use on a lab bench.

MBA and MCA Project Reports

GTU MBA students at affiliated management colleges submit semester projects and final-year dissertations in formats aligned with GTU's MBA ordinance. These reports, typically 80–100 pages, benefit from perfect or soft binding. MCA capstone project reports follow similar norms. Upload your PDF and use the price calculator for an instant quote.

Delivery Across Ahmedabad and GTU-Affiliated Colleges

Printster delivers to Ahmedabad — where GTU headquarters and numerous affiliated colleges are located — in 5–10 working days. Students at affiliated colleges in Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, or other Gujarat cities can also order, with the same 7–10 working day delivery window. Plan orders well ahead of GTU's semester submission deadlines, which tend to cluster at fixed university calendar dates.
