MUMBAI: Winning prizes while buying books. Now that’s called motivation. Or else you would have just tossed it to your scarp collector making him rich.

Held on 4 February at stall number W-04 in Hall 06, the event celebrated the winners of the ‘Scratch and Win’ contest, a campaign designed to reward passionate learners and loyal readers.
The contest, launched earlier this year, encouraged customers to engage with S Chand’s extensive range of educational resources, offering them the chance to win big-think laptops, scholarships, and exclusive merchandise. The goal? To make learning even more rewarding and strengthen S Chand’s connection with students, educators, and book lovers alike.
The ceremony wasn’t just about applause-it was about real rewards:
. Two grand prizes – Brand-new laptops to support digital learning journeys.
. Five scholarships – Rs 10,000 each, empowering academic excellence.
. More Giveaways – Gift vouchers, sippers, neckbands, and other exciting goodies.
The event saw S Chand Group MD Himanshu Gupta, and S Chand Publishing (Higher Education) business head Sachin Sharma personally presenting awards to the winners, making the occasion even more special.
Gupta shared his enthusiasm, “We are incredibly excited to celebrate the passion for learning that we have witnessed through this contest. This ceremony is a testament to our commitment to fostering a love of education and rewarding the dedication of our readers and learners. We believe this is a fitting way to acknowledge the support of our community at the prestigious New Delhi World Book Fair.”
Adding to the sentiment, Sharma highlighted the significance of the event, “This prize ceremony is a way for us to give back to our loyal customers and readers, and a fantastic opportunity to share the fun and excitement with everyone at NDWBF. It’s also an opportunity to connect with our community, promote authentic books, and discourage piracy.
