Good Book Shops

Brij asked me about some good book shops in and around Delhi. As an avid reader I go around and buy books from anywhere and everywhere... whether its Amazon or an airport book shop or a book shop in a mall or in Chandni Chowk.. here is my list of regular hangouts in no particular order

Galgotia's in B-Block Connaught place is a good source of all kind of books (computer, business, travel etc)

For technical (especially computer books) BPB Pulbications in Connaught Place and Jawahar Book Depot in Ber Sarai (JAWAHAR BOOK CENTRE DDA Shopping Complex, Ber Sarai, Opp. J.N.U., New Delhi Phones: 26528601, 26564337) are very good.

Jain Book Depot further ahead in Connaught Place is the definitive source for law, property and accounting related subjects.

There is Variety Book Depot (AVG Bhawan,. M-3 Connaught Circus) close to the Outer Nirurla's in Connaught Place which also has lots of books on cooking, travel, coffee table books etc.

Of course, nothing beats Nai Sarak in Old Delhi! The whole street is lined with bookshops on either side.

Faqir Chand & sons in Khan market is another upmarket bookshop.

Thanks a lot.

I'll take a print, and when next month i am out to buy my quota of books, i'll roam on all these places.

My dad, and myself are too much into books,, but we were used to buy from Chandni Chowk (Nai Sarak) only, or sometimes eco. books from a CP shop (That i never visited, coz i just don't like eco. while my dad is an economist).

I got to your blog sometime ago while looking for bookstores in Delhi. Since family and I moved from US we had been looking for books. Somedays ago a colleague at work told me about a website that rents books and we have joined.It is very convinient because they deliver adn pickup also. I think you should add www.friendsofbooks.com to your list to help people who are looking for books to read.
