Thanks, Tapas ji.
I feel use will be only 5 percent of what it would have been otherwise if published online.

I don't think price will be any factor; should be very reasonable. Today I received author copy of Fl. West Bengal, Vol. 4. The book consists of 734 pages with good quality paper and the price is only Rs. 1092. 
They are giving 10-20 % discount to students and Professors.

Thanks, Tapas ji.
It is not the price, but easy availability of inf. on the net (to all over the world), which matters.
We have to refer to the inf. of Flora of Pakistan, Flora of China, Checklist of Nepal, Flora of Bhutan etc. rather than those of BSI, simply beause of this.
With Corvid, the situation will further change due to all things going online.

Thanks, Tapas ji,
With what has happened in the past, I am not very hopeful.
