About the club
The Gujarat Philatelic Club is a non-profit organisation working to promote and develop philately — the study and collecting of stamps and postal history — across India.
Our members include students, teachers, professionals, researchers and senior philatelists. Whether you have just found your first stamp or have been building a collection for decades, you are welcome here.
Our mission
To preserve postal history, inspire new collectors and connect the philatelic community of Gujarat with collectors across India and the world.
