Having established itself as a leading player in the custom/contract publishing market in India, Spenta Multimedia is now in the process of strengthening its position in the publishing industry by expanding its newsstand publishing business.

Spenta plans to leverage its expertise in custom publishing by identifying opportunities for specialist newsstand titles with the potential to attract a significant reader and advertiser base. The first such title, HAIR was successfully launched in August 2007. HAIR was followed by the acquisition of Marwar from Arpan Publishing and a significant stake in Liquid. Spenta also co-publishes The Smart Manager, India’s first world class management magazine. Spenta acquired India Boating, India’s first luxury boating magazine, along with the Mumbai International Boat Show in 2009.
