INTRODUCTION
India is very populated country. Constantly expanding
population has required and will continue to demand for good
material and facility but available local companies are not sufficient
and also the market holding of the individual company is very small.
So we required good company with the very good market holding.

Multinational companies give people very good material and

facilities but they are at the very high cost and very good for high
society people so Indian common people cannot afford to use and
get their product. Indian life style living trend is now rapidly
changing with western culture but the Indian people are still Indian.
They are needed to have good Indian companies to give them good
material and facility to live and enjoy the better living life.

Seeing the present trends and requirement to Indian people the

Navneet Publication is the best Indian companies for good
publishing book product and good material at the very cheaper rate
as per requirements.

LOCATION
The location factor is one of the most important which has to be
considered with the care because a location can decide the smooth
running of business Navneet Publication Ltd. is located at Dantali
where the basic infrastructure facilities like transportation, labours,
electricity etc. were available.

Reasons for selecting the location of these sides:-

Registered Office:-

Mumbai. The main purpose for selecting this place was mainly that
Dadar area is centrally located and also well known area and the
functioning would be quite easy if things are handled from such an
easily accessible area of the well known city Mumbai.

Location of factory place:-

The selection of the factory site at Dantali was mainly.

Advantages:-

In this particular location of factory the most important is

that, the land is available at reasonable price. It is also located here
because Dantali is the most closely connected with city area of
Ahmedabad and because of city area connection the infrastructure
