Chinese are known to be the first people to use and invent ink.

Ink was invented by the Chinese in the 18th Century BC. The first known ink that was used in China was from natural plant dye, animal and mineral inks...

India only started using ink in the 4th century BC.

The oldest known variety of ink is Chinese Brush Ink which is still used in modern time and Japan and India started using it for writing with small brushes instead of pens.

The ink used in early India since at least the 4th century BC was called masi, which was an admixture of several chemical components
