PUBLISHING PACKAGES
Clear prices. No "get a quote" forms.
Two paths, five packages total — each priced and published up front, with every add-on disclosed the same way. Self-publishing is you, with our tools behind you. Express publishing is us, doing the work with you.
SELF-PUBLISHING — YOU DO THE WORK, WE MAKE SURE IT'S DONE RIGHT
Start free. Level up when you're ready.
Both of these are self-guided — you supply the manuscript and cover either way. The difference is reach and review, not hand-holding.

About these prices
What's the actual difference between self-publishing and express publishing?
Self-publishing is you, using our free or low-cost tools, start to finish — you write it, design it, we check it's print-ready and list it. Express publishing is our team doing the editing, design and launch work alongside you, for a higher but still published, transparent price.
How do I move from the free tier to a paid one?
Either pay for Self-Publish Plus or the express tier directly, or do well on the free tier first — strong early sales on your own author page and Amazon can earn you an invitation to upgrade at no extra cost. We review free-tier performance regularly.
Are these prices final, or will there be hidden costs?
What you see is what you pay for that package. Anything outside a package — extra editing rounds, a rush turnaround, additional author copies — is priced and shown to you before you agree to it, never added afterward.
Can I buy just one service instead of a package?
Yes. Editing, cover design, ISBN, distribution and marketing are all available individually — contact us or check Author services for current à la carte pricing.
Why does Premier cost more than what some competitors charge for similar support?
It usually doesn't — Premier is priced to come in well under what full-service packages commonly cost elsewhere in India for the same scope of editing, design and global distribution. We'd rather publish the number than make you ask for a quote.
What does "channel-by-channel royalty statement" mean?
You'll see exactly what you earned from direct sales, from Amazon/Flipkart, and from international channels, broken out separately — not one blended number.
