More than 75 years of service to the legal fraternity

We are a Law Books publishing firm, with both Hindi and English titles under two banners - Ashoka Law House and Whytes & Company. Our brand Ashoka Law House was established in 1969, with a humble beginning of selling law books and journals in various cities to individual lawyers, while Whytes & Co. saw the light of the day in 2010. It fills us with immense pride to state that our Founders have had the honour of supplying and setting up the first library of the Madhya Pradesh High Court at Jabalpur. 

​

We started our business with a handful of manuscripts but today we have successfully entrenched our position in the market and are home to more than 100 titles, that cover a gamut of areas in the field of Civil, Criminal, Service, Labour and Commercial laws, which have had the honour of being approved by the majority of the High Courts of India.

We are honoured and humbled that our publications have been referred and appreciated by Sitting Chief Justices of India along with Supreme Court & High Court Judges. We are proud to have celebrated Authors who have been felicitated and recognised Globally. To name a few:

👉 C.K. Thakker, Former Supreme Court Judge (well-known in India and England. He has even received a letter of Appreciation from Lord Denning)

👉 Justice R.P. Sethi, Former Supreme Court Judge

👉 Justice M.B. Shah, Former Supreme Court Judge; Chairman, Gujarat Law Commission; Chairman, Commission for Illegal Mining
