Hi Basha
Is it ISI marked? attach sample wood pic for some suggestions from other members on the same.
Its always better you inspect the ply while they cut from full sheet not the company makeup-ed samples.
Commenting by brand name is very difficult specifically in ply ,because there are more than 1000 brands (other than standard names kitply,green,archid,).and they keep changing these names

Thanks for your reply Praveen. On the ply it was printed as ISI. He gave me his show case samples, and then I have cut into two small pieces. I have attached the cut cross section of both MR and BWR grade samples for your review.

Thanks....

@basha - I used AK plywood and Raaj plywood (both MR and BWR) for wardrobes and kitchen. I'm satisfied with the quality of both brands.

As folks have pointed out, there are hundreds of plywood brands; You should select a supplier who can deliver the plywood quickly as and when additional plywood is needed.
