Niyogi Books is an independent publishing house based in New Delhi, India, that focuses on illustrated non-fiction books across art, architecture, travel, history, food, and culture.[1][2] It was founded in 2004 by Bikash De Niyogi, and started off publishing coffee table books, but soon after expanded its remit to include general trade non-fiction and, more recently, fiction books.[3][4] Niyogi also published the English translation of Mai, a novel by Booker-winner Geetanjali Shree, in 2017.[5] In 2019, it launched 'Bahuvachan', an imprint dedicated to Hindi-language titles.[6] The noted art historian B.N. Goswamy has extensively published with Niyogi.[7][8][9] In May 2022, Niyogi announced its entry into publishing children's books.[10]
