The Opportunity
As heritage-focused non-fiction publishing expands (triggered by growing audience for books like Thapar's), educational publishers, museum platforms, and digital learning companies need curated, legally-cleared historical narratives, archival photographs, and expert interviews about India's cities and monuments. Currently, rights clearance and content sourcing is fragmented—publishers waste 200-400 hours per book on research licensing.
Market Size₹180 Cr addressable market — based on ₹12,000 Cr Indian educational publishing sector × 1.
Why NowGST registration (5% on SaaS subscription, 5% on IP licensing); copyright clearance certificates for all archival content; IP indemnity clause in terms; partnership agreements with archives (ensure right-to-sublicense).
