Tagore Association

Tagore Association works in batik, the old wax-resist way of dyeing cloth. Its stall carries batik-printed sarees in cotton and silk, bedsheets and wrap skirts, each worked by hand, so no two pieces come out quite alike.

Bhayli

Bhayli makes handmade jewellery and resin décor, customised to order. Real flowers are set in resin for pendants, necklaces, photo frames and planters — some with Maa Durga at their heart — alongside oxidised necklaces with thread-ball and jhumka tassels, enamel-print earrings and a necklace inspired by Jamini Roy.

Aritra Prakashani

Aritra Prakashani is a home for Bengali ghost stories and psychological thrillers — haunted bungalows, Bhoot Chaturdashi nights and an omnibus of the uncanny — alongside historical mysteries such as the disappearance of Sri Chaitanya at Puri. The list also carries social novels, a life of Phoolan Devi, and books on Sanatan Dharma and Tantra.
