Startup Investments (Holding) Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Info Edge (India) Ltd, has committed to investing approximately ₹3.23 crore in Printo Document Services Private Limited, a print-on-demand platform based in Mumbai.
As of March 31, 2024, Printo Document Services Private Limited had a turnover of ₹129.36 crore and operates as an Info Edge (India) Ltd. Associate company, categorising the investment as a Related Party Transaction. However, the promoters of Info Edge (India) Ltd. have no personal interest in this investment.

Printo’s core business offers a diverse range of print and corporate merchandise solutions for personal and business needs, including business cards, stationary, apparel, and marketing collaterals, both online and through retail stores.
