The Way to Excellence

Nirali Prakashan was established way back in 1980 as a sister concern of

Pragati Prakashan Today it has acquired a status as one of the major
contributors of textbooks to the Indian educational arena.

Nirali Prakashan publishes a huge list of books for core specialization

subjects like Management, Pharmacy, Engineering, Computer Science as
well as textbooks and reference books for Std. XI TM& XII, graduate and
postgraduate level studies in various faculties including Arts, Commerce,
Science and Teacher Education. The University of Pune, University of
Mumbai, Shivaji University, Goa University, North Maharashtra University
and other renowned educational establishments have prescribed their books
as mandatory reads.

Nirali Prakashan's titles focus on fulfilling syllabus requirements and

encouraging students to explore the depths of a subject, through quality
content, written by eminent authors with wide academic and professional
experience in a variety of streams. These textbooks go through rigorous peer
review and stringent editorial processes. With thousands of titles currently in
circulation by prominent Indian and foreign scholars from academia and
industry, Nirali Prakashan is today recognised and respected as an authentic
and authoritarian source of reference.
