Paper Mart: How did MSIL become a global leader in prime and stock lot paper? Take us through the journey of your Company?
Chirag Jain: Becoming a global leader doesn’t happen without strenuous efforts. Mere understanding and knowledge are not enough.

We are backed by our rich experience in paper, in delivering the right material at competitive prices. We are committed to customer satisfaction; we provide them with quality materials to build a long-term partnership with them. We have been delivering materials for the last six decades.
