J.K.Jain Brothers owner of bookshopers.in was founded in Bhopal City by Late Shri Jinendra Kumar Jain in the year 1962, a 30-year-old High school pass out who had previously held a number of publishing-related jobs, including working in sales at Delhi, as a clerk at a bookstore. In 1962, he decided to strike out on his own and traveled to Bhopal formed a small Book shop to cater books to institutes and students for, at that time newly opened Gandhi Medical College Bhopal and Maulana Azad College of Technology (Now known as MANIT, Bhopal.)

We are now exclusive Distributors of many frontline Medical and Technical Publishers in the State of Madhya Pradesh. We are now Madhya Pradesh’s Largest local Bookseller and Library Supplier in terms of Revenue.
In 2014, J.K.Jain Brothers moved into publishing books of its own with the Brand name of Mausam Books. The company’s first major success was ‘Beemar Hona Bhul Jayiye by Dr. Abrar Multani’ and ‘The idea of One religion forwarded by Hon’ble Prime minister Shri Narendra Modi.’
J.K.Jain Brothers published relatively few books per year and issued only titles in which we ourselves believed. Unlike many large publishing houses, which focused on developing blockbusters and let slow-selling titles fall by the wayside, his company was persistent in promoting books until they caught on.
