Amazon has now added five Indian languages to Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and now authors can now self-publish their books for free in Hindi, Tamil, Marathi, Gujarati and Malayalam using the service.

. . . .

I have been a KDP author for 5 years,” explained author Sundari Venkatraman who has all of her eBooks on Amazon. “Having KDP support for Indian languages is fantastic. I have published in English and planning to release my books in Hindi and Tamil. KDP has given me a way to make my stories available to a wider audience.”

According to Sanjeev Jha, Director of Kindle Content in India, “We launched Indian language eBooks in 2016, and with the addition of Indian languages to KDP we will offer readers a wider selection of titles. We are excited to bring the work of Indian language authors to millions of readers in India and across the world.”
