Dear Sir,
I am thinking of starting up a Stationary (Office & Printing stationary) trading business. As this is my first venture, I have very little knowledge about the business & not sure about the finances required to start this business. Can you help me to get a fair idea as to how much investment required and the procedure/steps in setting up this kind of business.
Thank you very much.

Mr. Shaimin,
It would be great to start in a metro city. If you are seeking for large returns then it would be greater to start in Calcutta or Gujarat.
Because in Mumbai, investment will be higher and returns will be lesser. So think on that and then the decision.
Thank you.
