Pragati Book Centre

The information in this post might be outdated

Founded in 1974, Pragati Book Center has been around till date. Mr. Dinesh Furia started it as a retail bookshop for academic books. But, by 1976, Mr. Furia ventured into publishing academic guides and notes written by professors and other academics,  which of course, was a hit among Pune's student population. No wonder Pragati earned a trusted name to source textbooks, catalogues and competitive exam guides for streams like IT, engineering, arts, science, commerce, business, pharmacy, management, and UPSC and MPSE exams. Now, Pragati also houses a small selection of children's books, dictionaries, self-help, fiction/non-fiction among other genres.
