1. Introduction
Digitizing documents has become one of the trailblazers of proficiency, conformity, and availability in the modern business milieu. Throughout various industries, businesses are transitioning to digital, organized, and secure records to replace bulky physical records. Digital India efforts by the Indian government, along with the increasing investments by various companies in the private sector in cloud and automation, have been an issue that has made the service of document scanning critical.
MBM Newtech has played a strategic role in this change, providing the high-volume, high-fidelity scanning services supported by compliance procedures and the integration of cutting-edge technologies. As a well-established company in the document transformation industry, with optimized work in an environment demanding strict documentation, MBM Newtech has been a reliable vendor.
2. India’s Document Scanning Landscape: Market Trends
The Indian document scanning services market is considered to have a market size of around 2300 crore, and it is projected to grow in the range of a high rate per year until 2030. The main impelling factors are the following –
- Remote Work Culture – The current hybrid forms of work in the wake of the pandemic also require access to documents in the cloud.
- Compliance Push – Regulatory practices as of SEBI, RBI, and the IT Act 2000 require digitized records in order to be audit-ready.
- Government Digitization – E-Courts, Digital India Land records modernization programme (DILRMP), and Smart cities projects are among the systems that are driving the requirement for bulk and legacy document scanning.
- Tier 2/3 Adoption – Increase in digitization of regional hubs is broadening the service coverage beyond metros.
MBM Newtech is striking into this development with specialised services to urban enterprises and local government-level administrative agencies.

7. Challenges in Scaling Scanning Solutions
Even with the growth, there are still several bottlenecks –
- Fragmentation/Fragmentation Systems – Systems fragmentation (ERPs/DMS communication with unmanaged systems)
- User Resistance – Conventional companies do not want to part ways with paper-based working methods
- Government Budget Constraints – Limited adoption in Tier 3 or legacy-intensive Policy
- Training Gaps – The personnel should be trained on the digital archiving system
MBM Newtech counters them by providing onboarding services, cross-platform support, and affordable levels of service that are applicable to public sector projects.
