About Us | ABC Books - India's Premier Bookstore

Our Story

A Journey of Spreading Knowledge

ABC Books was founded in 1972 with a simple mission: to make quality books accessible to every reader in India. What started as a small bookshop in Srinagar has grown into one of India's most loved online bookstores.

Our founder, a passionate bibliophile, believed that books have the power to transform lives. This belief continues to drive everything we do at ABC Books. We are committed to bringing the best books from around the world to your doorstep at affordable prices.

Today, we serve millions of readers across India with a carefully curated collection of books spanning every genre imaginable – from Islamic literature and spiritual texts to international bestsellers and academic resources.
