New Century Book House

Active

A Tamil publisher and bookseller founded in Madras, according to its own account on 1 June 1951 (another source gives 1958). It publishes Tamil translations of the Marxist classics — including the Communist Manifesto — alongside Tamil literature, and now has 18 branches across Tamil Nadu. It is associated with the Communist Party of India; the details of that association still need confirming.
