The group grew out of Electronics For You, which has served as a reference publication for the Indian electronics community for several decades. Over time, the publishing house expanded beyond a single title into a broader portfolio of magazines, technical books, online portals, industry directories and events targeted at engineers, technicians, makers and decision-makers in the electronics and information technology sectors.
The group's output typically covers areas such as consumer and industrial electronics, components, embedded systems, open source software, do-it-yourself projects, and the business of electronics manufacturing in India. In addition to print magazines, EFY Group operates web properties that carry news, technical articles, project ideas and product information, and it compiles industry directories that list manufacturers, distributors and service providers in the Indian electronics ecosystem.
The group has also organised conferences, expos and awards aimed at the electronics design and manufacturing community, providing a platform for networking between industry, academia and government stakeholders.
As one of the earliest and most widely circulated technical magazines in India, Electronics For You played a notable role in popularising electronics as a hobby and as a profession in the country. By publishing circuit projects, tutorials and industry analysis, the EFY Group has contributed to technical education and to the documentation of the Indian electronics and IT industries. Its directories and trade-focused publications are used as reference material by industry participants.
