Keeping in view the above-mentioned requirements, the Company is in the process of identification of a suitableplace in Vadodara city. However, the Company is also in discussion with various Philatelists and other organizations to have various exhibitions to promote philatelic activity in our nation.

Further, to promote digitalization, the Company has also purchased website namely www.indianstampghar.com which will in turn surely strengthen the business of the Company.
