About the Company

Six decades of Indian calendar printing, built for export.

Calendars From India is the export brand of Arun Art Printers Pvt. Ltd., a Mumbai-based offset print house established in 1962. We manufacture wall, desk and corporate calendars for importers, corporate buyers and distributors worldwide. It was founded by Arun M. Shah — the “Calendar Man” of Mumbai and a past President of the Bombay Master Printers’ Association.

Who we are

A family-run offset print house with an export discipline.

Arun Art Printers began in 1962 as a general offset print business in Mumbai. Over the decades, calendar manufacturing became one of our strongest lines, and Calendars From India was created as the export-facing brand for that work.

Everything we sell through this website is designed, printed, finished and packed at our own facilities in Mumbai — we do not outsource production. That single-roof model is deliberate: it keeps colour, quality and delivery on a predictable schedule, which is what bulk buyers and importers need.

Our sister site www.arunart.in covers our wider commercial printing services. This site — calendarsfromindia.com — is dedicated to the calendar export business.

What we make

Calendars, built for bulk export.

Three categories, one manufacturing floor. Specs open to customisation at order volume.

Who we serve

Bulk buyers, not retail shoppers.

We manufacture to order for:

  • Importers and distributors in the US, UK, wider European Union, and African markets who need reliable, export-grade Indian manufacturing.
  • Corporate buyers ordering branded wall, desk and corporate calendars for annual gifting, client programmes and internal use.
  • Promotional and gifting companies putting together year-end packs for their own end-clients.
  • Religious and institutional buyers ordering devotional, regional and heritage designs for their communities.

We do not sell single-copy retail. All orders are bulk and all quotations are treated as RFQs.

How we work

Four principles we protect.

One roof, end-to-end

Design liaison, pre-press, offset printing, binding, finishing, QC and export packing all happen at our Mumbai facility. No hand-offs to third parties that we cannot control.

Consistent colour at scale

Offset printing is chosen precisely because it holds colour across long runs. We do controlled press checks rather than rely on digital proofs alone.

Multi-stage quality control

Checks at pre-press, press start, mid-run and before binding / dispatch. Issues caught on the floor, not at the buyer’s warehouse.

Export-ready, not retrofitted

Cartons, pallet configuration, moisture protection and documentation are set up for international freight from the quote stage onwards — not bolted on after production.

A note from the desk

“The point of this website is simple.”

“Arun Art Printers has been printing calendars out of Mumbai since 1962. Over the years we have shipped to buyers in the US, UK, Europe and Africa — and many of those relationships started with a simple email that described a requirement clearly.”

“This website exists so buyers outside India can understand, in one visit, what we make, how we run production, and what to send us to get a useful quotation back. If that is clear to you by the time you finish browsing, the site has done its job.”

— Biren Shah, Director — Finance & International Operations, Arun Art Printers Pvt. Ltd.
