EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Paid-circulation newspapers are a popular advertising medium for most local
businesses. They are the oldest forms of mass media, and they continue to be one of
the largest, as measured by volume of advertising dollars. Industry giants, as well as the
local convenience stores, use newspapers to advertise. Every community has its own
newspaper. There are over 5000 paid-circulation daily newspapers in India and several
thousand additional local weekly papers as well. Every advertising medium has
characteristics that give it natural advantages and limitations. As you scan your local
newspaper(s), you will notice a number of businesses that advertise on a regular basis.
Observe who they are, and how they advertise their products and services. More than
likely, if the advertisements are repeated, the ads are working. Consider this media if
you are selling to a general market, because newspapers are generally bought by all
segments of the population. Even though the newspaper no longer enjoys its former
role as the almost exclusive source of news, they still remain a strong factor in their
specific sphere of influence.
According to the recent survey every Indian loves to read a newspaper and seeing
Indias population we can say that newspaper advertising in India is the most lucrative
option. This means at one go you can easily showcase your company and products to
the entire India. The biggest advantage of newspaper advertising in India is that there
are various newspapers in various languages. This means you can easily saturate your
target audience and can advertise according to that. By doing this you can easily reach
and target your audience, moreover it is also the sure shot way to disseminate your
message. It has been seen that majority big companies prefer to propagate their
message via newspaper advertising in India as it is not only cheap but also very
successful.

'Media' is the medium of carrying information, education and entertainment to the
masses. It is an easier and efficient means of communication which plays a key role in
the overall development of an economy. In an era where knowledge and facts are the
tools for economic, political and cultural exchange, presence of the strong andconstructive media in a country is important for catering to the diverse needs of
individuals, society as a whole, small and large business and production houses,
various research organizations, private sectors as well as the public sectors. Media is a
conscience-keeper of the nation and has many tasks to perform in our day-to-day lives.
It helps the Government to achieve various socioeconomic and political goals; educate
urban and rural masses; instill a sense of responsibility among the people; as well as
provide justice to the needy. It largely consists of print media like newspapers,
magazines, journals and other publications, etc. as well as electronic media like radio,
television, internet, etc. With the changing scenario of the world, it has acquired the
status of an industry.
In India, the media and entertainment industry is undergoing remarkable change and is
one of the fastest growing sectors. The main factors responsible for this are rising per

capita/ national income, high economic growth and strong macro-economic
fundamentals, democratic set up; good governance as well as law and order position in
the country. Specifically, spectacular growth of the television industry, new formats for
film production and distribution, privatization and growth of radio, gradually liberalizing
attitude of Government towards the sector, easier access to and for international
companies as well as advent of digital communication and its technological innovations
are the other attributes of the growth of the sector. The media industry plays an
important role in creating people's awareness about national policies and programmes
by providing information and education, besides creating healthy business environment
in the country. Thus, it helps people to be active partners in the nation-building
endeavor.

Hyper-Local
The term hyper-local can be used as a noun in isolation or as a modifier of some other
term (e.g. news). When used in isolation it refers to the emergent ecology of data
(including textual content), aggregators, publication mechanism and user interactions
and behaviors which centre on a resident of a location and the business of being a
resident.
Hyper-local content, often referred to as hyper-local news, is characterized by three
major elements. Firstly, it refers to entities and events that are located within a well
defined, community scale area. Secondly, it is intended primarily for consumption by
residents of that area. Thirdly, it is created by a resident of the location (but this last
point is discussed because for example a photo can be hyper-local but not locally
produced).
This type of content should be contrasted with local news which tends to be less
geographically constrained.
There are other types of data which have local or hyper-local relevance, or be of interest
to residents - e.g. a government statistic on crime rates in your neighborhood. Such
data, while relevant to residents are of a qualitatively different type.
Media Structure, While there are various ways in which hyper-local content is being
created and published, blogs have become a key part of the hyper-local ecology. Their
basic roles evident in the space include individual blogs, blog networks, and
aggregators.
Wikis have also played a role. In April 2010, the Wahoo Newspaper partnered with
WikiCity Guides to extend its audience and local reach. With this partnership, the
Wahoo Newspaper provides a useful tool to connect with our readers, and for our
readers to connect with one another to promote and spotlight everything Wahoo has to
offer, said Wahoo Newspaper Publisher Shon Barenklau.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Kambitsis, Chris et al (2000), this research attempted to investigate why sport themes
are used in advertisements, and the motives that lead companies and advertisers to use
sport celebrities and sport concepts in advertisements. The detailed examination of the
fieldwork took place in Sydney, prior to and during the 2000 Olympic Games. Printed
media were observed for a period of five to six months. Many parameters were taken
into consideration comparing three monthly magazines and two daily newspapers in
order to gain knowledge and provide answers to the fundamental questions. In addition,
two famous athletes, a sport manager and an advertising executive were interviewed.
Furthermore the outcome of the research showed that Olympic Games did not play a
catalyst role in sport advertisement issues in the particular print media. It also concluded
that the selection procedures that advertising companies followed, in order to select
athletes, were not based only on their achievements but mostly were related to their
personalities. Anon (2008), this research paper aims to review the latest management
developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge
research and case studies. An open and democratic society depends on the quality of
its newspapers. Whether youre local newspaper is a big-city title like the New York
Times or just a little down-home local like the any town Gazette, newspapers function
almost as a public service. They report local events, interpret what is happening in the
nation or the world and provide a voice for their readers in the letters column. Theresearch paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced
some of the world's leading organizations. Clow, Kenneth E. et al (2006), The results
of the study indicate that both source credibility and service quality evaluations have a
definite impact on attitude towards the ad and purchase intentions of a service and the
type of visual element used is important in the ad evaluation process. The findings of
12

this research are important for creatives in designing service ads. If a model or
spokesperson is used in the print ad, then source credibility is an important factor.
Further, it is important to embed service quality cues in the ad to increase viewers'
expectations of the service, thus enhancing purchase intentions. Wang, Chingning et
al (2007), In this research, we take a consumers perspective and examine consumers.
Perceptions of different types of ads. Our aim is to understand the perceived differences
between the Internet-based advertising and traditional advertising for both brand
building and directional purposes. We believe that the Internet and Web have the
potential to better support goal-oriented consumers, thus providing a great potential for
Internet-based directional advertising. We hope that this research will contribute to a
better conceptual understanding of consumers. Perceptions by extending the existing
frameworks. Meanwhile, the study can provide practical suggestions on how to design
effective online ads to fully utilize the advantages of the Internet-based media. Panwar,
J.S., Agnihotri, Milan (2006), It was found that children's ability to decode and
process advertising messages and to understand their intents is influenced not only by
their cognitive abilities at different age strata but also by their social and personal
environments. Social norms related to acceptability and appropriateness of gender
behavior also influence the processing of ad messages by the children of both sexes.
Other elements like likeability of the model, character or endorser, story line, slogan andthe music will create liking or disliking for a particular advertisement and hence
decoding of its message. Rotfeld, Herbert J. (2002), Focuses on bad advertising
commercials and asserts that such advertising is not because of a lack of creativity,
entertainment value or money for production. Bad advertising is often because
advertising creators fail to focus on potential end customers, and what they need to see
and hear. Anon (2008), Advertisements are lifeline of companies. It persuades
customers to buy their product. Everyone can use advertisements but they must obey
the law. There are many types of advertisement that can influence consumers attitude
to buy a product. The researchers think that TV ad is the most influential type of
advertisement because most people watch TV and unlike other advertisements TV ad
has the ability to convey your message with sight, sound, and motion. they more
accurate to influence consumers because they can easily reach target audiences.

Gabriel, Helen et al (2006), There was considerable ignorance of formal models of
advertising effect. Agencies using them typically favored the hierarchy-of-effects
variants. Although more than a third of the sample eschewed models, there was little
evidence of animosity towards advertising theory of itself. Non-adoption was
significantly explained by constructs drawn from the academic literature of knowledge
dissemination. The study emphasizes the pressing need to harmonies formal models of
how advertising works with conceptual frameworks used by advertising agencies in
practice (if any), for the improvement of campaign planning and evaluation. Foster,
Jinnene (2009), Print media, though recognized for all the good they can do, are also
occasionally criticized for slanting information. Communities and individuals have a
responsibility to choose their media sources wisely. Nonetheless, society needs print
media to stay informed. Dearden, James A., Lilien, Gary L. (2001), We develop a
competitive advertising model, where a firm's advertising spending can be divided into
two parts. One part, which we call generic advertising, affects only total market demand.
The second component of that spending, brand advertising, affects market share
directly, but may also have an effect on total market demand. We investigate how the
profit margins of the firms, the advertising elasticitys, the base market shares of the
firms, and the market demand effect of brand advertising interact to determine the total
amount of advertising spending in the market, who pays and how they pay (the ratio ofgeneric to brand advertising). We also show that, in general, a market where generic
advertising expenditures are set cooperatively will see higher expenditures of generic
advertising than will a purely competitive market. Nelson, Jon P. (2001), This study
focuses on advertising bans and alcohol consumption or abuse, and advertising
expenditures and alcohol consumption. Studies of state-level bans of billboards are
examined as well as studies of international bans that cover broadcasting media. For
expenditures, the survey concentrates on econometric methods and the existence of an
industry advertising-sales response function. Selected results from survey-research
studies of advertising and youth alcohol behaviors also are discussed. The chapter
concludes that advertising bans do not reduce alcohol consumption or abuse;
advertising expenditures do not have a market-wide expansion effect; and survey-
research studies of youth behaviors are seriously incomplete as a basis for public

policy. Results of the survey are applied to the Supreme Court's Central Hudson test for
constitutionality of restrictions on commercial speech. Degraffenreid, Scott (2006),
Traditional media advertising has lost significant impact at an accelerating rate over the
past 20 years and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Referrals are the
primary viable alternative for reaching customers and can be used to reinvigorate
traditional marketing. Organizations that ignore the importance of referral marketing will
find markets increasingly expensive and difficult to access and will lose competitive
advantage with organizations that do understand and manage the value of word-of-
mouth marketing. Pelsmacker, Patrick De et al (2002), An emotional and a rational
advertising message for a new brand of juice are tested in a positive and negative
newspaper context in a sample of 100 young consumers. The positive context leads to
more positive attitudes and to better ad content recall. The rational advertising message
results in significantly more positive attitudes, in a higher purchase intention, and in
better ad content recall. The attitude towards an emotional ad and ad content recall are
significantly more positive in a positive context. Purchase intention and content recall as
a result of rational ads are higher in a negative context. Raymond, Mary A., Lim, Jong
W. (2002), This paper provides a case study comparing the international advertising
strategy that Hyundai Motor Company, Korea, utilized when they introduced the
Hyundai Santa Fe in Korea and in the United States. Based on Hyundai's understandingof factors affecting standardization and adaptation decisions and possible negative
country-of-origin effects, the case illustrates how Hyundai created a positive brand
image with a local adaptation advertising strategy. A framework illustrating factors
affecting the local adaptation decision, the advertising decisions that Hyundai made,
and the effectiveness of those decisions is presented. Given the success of Hyundai's
local adaptation advertising strategy and the Santa Fe, Hyundai announced plans to
build a production facility in the United States. Fernandes, Leela (2000), The article
intervenes in the debate over the effects of globalization on the nation-state by exploring
the ways in which meanings of the global are produced through the nationalist
imagination in India. Globalization in India has unfolded in the context of the `new
economic policies' of liberalization initiated in the 1990s. Both television and print media
images increasingly contribute to the reproduction of a hegemonic political culture, one
15

that has discarded the remnants of a state-dominated planned economy. An analysis of
this process calls into question the post-national thesis of the globalization paradigm.
First, the imagined form of the `global' is produced through cultural signs that rest on the
deployment of nationalist narrative. Second, media representations depict India's
relationship with the world economy through images of a hybrid relation between the
national and the global. Finally, globalization in India has led to a form of
reterritorialization which polices the boundaries of gendered social codes. Smart,
Graham and Smart, Alison, (2010), The internet has led to falling advertising revenues
and dwindling circulations. The companies reacted to this by developing online news
services, which do not have the distribution costs of a physical product, enable the
customization of editorial and advertising content, and facilitate the co-creation of news
content with consumers. Moving online has, however, not fully compensated for the
losses in revenues. Readers were reluctant to pay for online content, the income from of
the sale of web-based advertising space was significantly lower than for the printed
form, and journalists resisted co-creation. Regional newspapers face problems
developing an effective online news service to enable them to remain relevant in the
communities they serve. The findings suggest that, although newspapers have adopted
multimedia, and now have some user generated content, there is a reluctance to
consider greater usage of additional forms of news production and e-tools. C, Alarcon,(2008), - Regional newspapers are undergoing long-term falls in both circulation and
advertising expenditure as well as increased competition from the internet, national
newspapers and the BBC. Reveals that many regional papers are taking a 'hyper local'
approach to their online offerings but wonders whether there will be enough demand for
so much local content as specialist websites or publications can often provide an
alternative source of information. Adds that if the BBC's proposal for hyper-local
websites is successful, this will deliver a potentially lethal blow to regional publishers,
although online classifieds are the bigger short-term threat to regional media. However,
notes that the Newspaper Society is working on a new system with ABC Electronic and
local press agency Jicreg to bring together print and online audience figures of regional
newspapers and their websites, providing advertisers with a better idea of their
combined reach across the two media platforms. Sterling, John, (2002), A respected

Wisconsin metro newspaper, confronting significant market change and eroding profit
opportunities, gathered a broad cross-section of its management team together a little
more than a year ago to take a fresh look at its business strategy. The resulting
strategic plan strikes a balance between focusing on key operational targets and
creating distinctive editorial products that ensures the paper remains the indispensable
source of news and information in its markets. This case study examines how The
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel used strategic planning to craft a strategy that keeps profits
flowing despite in an increasingly competitive market environment. This case
demonstrates that even when a company is pushed to improve operational performance
it still cannot ignore the need to create a distinctive strategic position in its market. And,
even when a company enjoys a leading market position, it cannot afford to relax its
commitment to operational excellence. Moosepile (2008), Print media is certainly
entering a new phase, but the death knell hasn't sounded yet, and this is an old topic.
The "print" side of it, i.e. putting their wares onto a physical medium, is changing, but it
doesn't affect the core of what print media is. Don't forget that "print media" is words,
images, etc put onto a paper medium - but the medium is merely the vehicle. It's the
print media that is moving to the "display media", but nothing else is changing. The
words and images that print media produces come via another medium now, but it's the
same. You can't call print media dead or dying because people don't want to read onpaper anymore - the content doesn't need paper as a medium to be relevant. The
content has another medium now in electronics, and it can carry on as strong as ever.
Compare that to radio. One could argue that print media is the winner in the electronic
age, compared to TV and radio. Saying that bloggers are winning the media war is akin
to saying that having a local cable access channel is winning the war on NBC/ABC/etc.
Everything has its place, and the world isn't ready for bloggers to be the news source.
Print media IS electronic media already in that their content is so easily moved from
paper to screen. I'm not saying all (or most, really) print media is doing it right, but they
certainly have it easy compared to other media.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The objective of the present study can be accomplished by conducting a systematic
market survey. Market Research is a systematic design, collection, analysis and
reporting of data and finding that are relevant to different market situation facing by the
company. The marketing research processes that will be adopted in the present study
consist of the following stages:
Defining the problem and research objective:
The research objective state that what information is needed to solve the problem. Here
the objective of the research is customer preference towards choosing a newspaper as
a medium of advertising and scope of hyper-local newspaper in print media.
Developing research plan:
Once the problem is defined, the next step is to prepare a plan for getting the
information needed for the research. The present study will adopt descriptive and
casual approaches, where in there is a need to gather a large amount of information
before making a conclusion if required.
Universe:-
We are conducting a research entitled customer preferences towards choosing a
newspaper as a medium of advertising and scope of hyper-local newspaper in print
media. There are 1500 clients in panchkula region for advertisement and it is too huge,
so for research purpose the population will be all retailers, education institutes, service
providers etc.
18

8/8/2019 Sachin chauhan
19/76
Target population: - our target population is 100 customers, who like to advertise their
business.
Research Approaches:-
It is a kind of descriptive research because the data will be collected from different
retailers and advertisers. Defining the results, it is necessary to know about customers
opinion, beliefs, preferences and satisfaction. Primary data can be collected through
observation, questionnaire but I approached survey research, which is, most
conventional method for getting more reliable information.
Sampling size :-
For this research study I have set 100 respondents as sampling size because of time
and cost constraint.
Research Instruments:-
I framed a questionnaire in which having open end an close and both type questions.
Preparing this questionnaire, I kept in my mind to objectives because object related
questions are always most helpful to finding the research purpose.
Hypothesis Formulation
Null (H0) There is no effect on customer preference towards choosing a medium of
advertising.
Alternative (H1) There is a significant effect on customer preference towards
choosing a medium of advertising.

LIMITATIONS OF STUDY
As only Panchkula city dealt in survey so it does not represent the view of the
total Indian market.
Size of the research may not be substantial.
There was lack of time on the part of respondents.
The survey was carried through questionnaire and the questions were based on
perception.
There may be biasness in information by market participant.
Complete data was not available due to company privacy and secrecy.
Customer dissatisfied with the services.
People assume that Panchkula Live is a local newspaper and they do not
suppose Panchkula Live is a part of Hindustan Times Private, so they do not
advertise with Panchkula live.
Advertising means wastage of money for many people in Panchkula.
Lacks of motivation as false commitments were made to customer by the
company.

Newspaper Advertising - Advantages &
Disadvantages
Advantages of Newspaper Advertising
There are a number of characteristics of paid-circulation newspapers that make them
especially appealing to advertisers:
Most paid-circulation papers, both daily and
weekly, reach the majority of homes in their
primary city or town.
Almost every home in the India receives a newspaper, either at the newsstand or
by home delivery.
Newspapers permit an advertiser to reach a large number of people within a
specified geographical area.
The printed advertising message has both permanence and desired
obsolescence. A reader can refer back to, or even clip and save, a particular ad,
yet tomorrows edition is new and fresh and as eagerly sought by the same
reader.
The newspaper offers a predictable frequency of publication: once, twice or up to
seven times a week.
21
-
8/8/2019 Sachin chauhan
22/76
Newspapers have immediacy. You can place an ad on Monday and be getting
results before the week is over. Short deadlines permit quick responses to
changing market conditions.
People expect to find advertising in their newspapers. In fact, many people buy
newspapers just to read the ads from the restaurants, movies and discount
stores.
Reading the newspaper has become a habit for most families. It has something
for everyone.
You can reach certain segments of your market by placing your ads in different
sections of the paper such as: sports, comics, crosswords, news, classifieds, etc.
An advertiser has flexibility in terms of ad size and placement. Production
changes can be made quickly, if necessary, a new insert can be added on short
notice.
Advertisements can be examined at leisure. Exposure is not limited, so readers
can take their time reading the messages.
It offers a great variety of ad sizes. If you dont have a large budget, you can still
run a series of small ads.
Many options are available. Copy alone; copy with graphics; black and white; or
full color. Newspaper supplements often feature certain subjects that readers pull out and
save.
Disadvantages of Newspaper Advertising
Advertising in the newspaper is not without a few inherent disadvantages, such as:
Any given advertising message must compete for the readers attention. The
paper may contain hundreds of ads, as well as dozens of articles and features for
the reader to wade through. If the total time spent scanning a newspaper is only
20 minutes, your ad may not be noticed by a significant number of people.
22
-
8/8/2019 Sachin chauhan
23/76
You have no assurance that every person who receives the newspaper will read
your ad. They may not read the section you advertised in, or they may simply
have skipped the page because it contained little or nothing else of interest.
It has a relatively short life span (newspapers are typically read once, then discarded),
thus requiring multiple insertions.

service. No other force in public life operates so persistently and so extensively in its
range of appeal. The scope of this subject of appeal and matter as so does the press.
Newspapers have a unique dimension of social responsibility, which means the
newspaper industry different from every other industry. But business success is as vital
to this industry as to any other.
According to the recorded facts the first newspaper of the world was published in China
around 1000 years ago. It meant News of the Capital. The second newspaper of the
world was the Acto Divra which meant, Daily happening in Greek. There are the
oldest two newspapers in the pre-recorded history. The first newspaper of the world was
the Morning Post which was started in London in the year 1772 followed by this
another newspaper The London Times started in publications. The Origin of the Indian
Newspaper The first newspaper in Indian appeared on 29th January 1780, which JamesAugustris Hicky started the Bengal Gazette or Calcutta General Advertises This was
a weekly political and commercial paper open to all parties but influenced by none.
Journalism started in India as a mission to expose the malpractices of East India
Company Rule and Administration for his criticisms Hicky was fined a large amount and
later on imprisoned. Simultaneously a number of Journals emerged under the
sponsorship of company officials for defending themselves against the criticism made
by Hicky and his followers. The second one came up in November 1780.
The third one up in February 1784. The Calcutta Gazette this was followed by Bengat
Chronicle in 1785 from them onwards the news and newspaper have flooded
throughout India, Indian press the present Scenario. The Indian press consists of more
than 20000 newspaper magazines and periodicals published in 20 different languages
with a combined circulation of more than 55 million. The number of the major

newspaper, magazines with membership in Indian Newspaper Society (INS) is given
53.4%. It has a combined circulation of 34 million out of these there and 150 English
with circulation of 7 millions and there are 38 in Indian languages with a circulation of 27
million. News Agencies There are 4 main news agencies in India.
1. Press Trust of India (PTI)
2. United News of India (UNI)
3. Sam char Bharathi (SB)
4. Hindustan Sam char (HS)
While the Press Trust of India is supplying news in English, the other two are operating
through the medium of Hindi and other Indian languages. Since May 1982, the United
News of India has also launched a new service in Hindi and the credit line of
UNIVARTA. Similarly Press Trust of India has started in 1986 a Hindi language news
service called Press Trust of India BHASHA. Role of Newspapers to the Consumers
The power of the press is felt on our activities. It controls the rise and face of ceings,
cabinets and presidents. Once an editor said I care not who governs the country so
long as I can govern the press . The press has rightly been called the Fourth Estate.
Such an influential organ has to shoulder great responsibilities the power, unless usedwith great care will cause server damage. The first and foremost duty of the press is to
furnish uncolored news, but at the same time, it should furnish news on all fields such
as science, economic, politics etc. The news should not suppressed undue emphasis
be laid. Some sensational newspaper now a days print unimportant and trivial news in
the front pages, while worldwide important news are not given place in the first page.
Another great responsibility of the press is to represent public opinion without fear or
favors. As the press is called the eyes and ear of the world, it has to keep an eye on
what happens and reflects views of the people on those happenings. The press is a
medium not only to give news to the public but also to express the public opinion. The
letters of the consumers published under Letters to the Editors Yours Views etc.
Initiate debates on controversial issues. It will help definitely to bring out the best of it.
Thus the press is not only a mirror of what the people thinks, but it is also a school of

Instruction, a source of guidance to the common people. CONSUMERS VALUE
Consumers delivered value is the difference between total consumers value and total
consumers cost. Total consumers value is the bundle of benefits consumers expect to
incur in evaluating, obtaining, using and disposing of the product or service.
CONSUMERS STATISFACTION Satisfaction is a persons feelings of Pleasure of
disappointment resulting from comparing products perceived performance (or outcome)
in relation to his or her expectations. At this definition makes clear, satisfaction is a
function of perceived performance and expectations. If the performance falls short of
expectations, the consumers are dissatisfied. If the performance matches the
expectations, the consumers are satisfied. If the performance exceeds expectations, the
consumers are highly satisfied or delighted. Many companies are aiming for high
satisfaction because consumers who are just satisfied still find it easy to switch when a
better offer comes along. Those who are highly satisfied are much less to switch. High
satisfaction or delight creates an emotional bond with the brand, not just, a rational
preference. The result is high consumers loyalty. From past buying experience, friends
and associates advice, and marketers and competitors information and promises. The
key to generating high consumers loyalty is to deliver high consumers value According
to Michael Lanning, in hi delivering profitable value; a company must develop a
competitively superior value proposition and a superior value delivery system. Acompanys value proposition is much more than its positioning on a single attribute; it is
a statement about the resulting experience consumers will have from the offering and
their relationship with the supplier. The brand must represent a promise about the total
resulting experience that consumers can expect. Whether the promise is kept depends
upon the companys ability to manage its value - delivery system includes all the
communications and channel experiences the consumers will have on the way to
obtaining the offering.
The Indian Newspaper industry can be primarily segmented across two categories viz
English Newspapers and Regional / Vernacular Newspapers. The English medium
26
-
8/8/2019 Sachin chauhan
27/76
dominates the industry in terms of advertisement revenues, though vernacular
newspapers outperform the English newspapers in circulation.
English newspaper industry in India has been fragmented with the players having a
regional focus such as the Deccan Chronicle in Hyderabad, Hindustan Times in Delhi,
Times of India in Mumbai, Hindu in Chennai, Telegraph and Statesman in Kolkata,
Deccan Herald in Bangalore, Gujarat Samachar in Ahmedabad. However, the industry
is witnessing a trend whereby players are looking beyond their home territories viz.
Times of Indias and Business Standards entry into certain newer territories and
Deccan Chronicle and Hindustan Times also doing the same.
The competitive landscape has now drastically changed with major publishers trying to
expand to other geographic regions, initiating price wars and marketing campaigns to
win readers. The competitive intensity, which was quite mild until few years ago, also
reached a higher level with the launch of DNA and Hindustan Times in the Mumbai
market.
A booming economy and the opportunity to raise funds from a well-developed financial
market have also contributed to the growth of the newspaper industry in India. Indian
newspaper industry had a turnover of Rs 13,500 crore in 2006. It is expected to touchRs 15,500 crore. The size of media industry in India as a portion of the GDP is
estimated at 0.7%, which is lower than most of the developed and developing nations.
Thus it offers a scope of high growth in this industry moving forward. Advertising
expenditure to GDP reveals that advertisement expenditure to GDP ratio in India is
0.4%. With rising income and education level in India, readership is expected to rise and
with favorable demographics, advertising revenues will increase as advertisers start
spending more to attract higher quality audience with more purchasing power.
Newspaper publication is usually issued on a daily or weekly basis, the main function of
which is to report news. Many newspapers also furnish special information to readers,
such as weather reports, television schedules, and listings of stock prices. They provide
commentary on politics, economics, and arts and culture, and sometimes include
27

8/8/2019 Sachin chauhan
28/76
entertainment features, such as comics and crossword puzzles. In nearly all cases and
in varying degrees, newspapers depend on commercial advertising for their income.
Present scenario is that by the time, they see a newspaper, most people have already
learned about breaking news stories on television or radio. Readers rely on newspapers
to provide detailed background information and analysis, which television and radio
newscasts rarely offer. Newspapers not only inform readers that an event happened but
also help readers understand what led up to the event and how it will affect the world
around them. Page designers assemble articles, photos, illustrations, advertisements,
and eye-catching headlines into page layouts, and then rush their work to the printer.
Newspapers as known today are complete with advertising and a mixture of political,
economic, and social news and commentary.

PANCHKULA LIVE
Panchkula live is a supplement paper of Hindustan time. Which is running with
Hindustan time? Panchkula live is a first hyper local which was started by HT Media ltd.
Mohali on number 2009. Its a hyper local newspaper for Panchkula town. The main
motive to start a Panchkula live hyper local in Panchkula are to provide more space for
the news of Panchkula region it is not possible in HT main So to short out this problem
HT start Panchkula live hyper local in Panchkula region. The one another main motive
to start Panchkula live was to generate more and more revenue for HT through
advertisement. The Panchkula city is one of the emerging city of Haryana state and it is
near the Chandigarh. So grasp more and more market on the point of advertisement.
one main motto behind starting Panchkula live is to attract local market business.
Because they cannot advertise in national newspaper Last but not least one another
reason was to increase the circulation of HT in Panchkula city by generating a
emotional appeal on the mind of the Panchkula people by starting a local news paper
only for Panchkula. And the punch line for Panchkula live also show a emotional appeal
Panchkula live publish on every Friday and attached with HT free of cost and the
commercial houses where HT is not issuing there only Panchkula live delivered free of
cost. When Panchkula live is on starting stage its selling is door to door but in present it
inserted with Hindustan time.. At present the circulation Panchkula is about 8000 in
house hold and 3000 commercial. Its circulation is better than other local newspaper in
Panchkula. Because of brand name. Most of advertise want to advertise in Panchkula
live. Panchkula live is running in profit.

Scope of Hyper-Local in print Media
On the basis of my study and other surveys hyper-local newspaper like Panchkula live
has a significant and bright future because Indian youth generation likes to read easy to
carry. These newspaper (hyper-local) become very popular in next one or two year.
Hyper- local newspaper also a great source of revenue for company because a hyper-
local newspaper has news from its local community and people like to read about their
city. So hyper-local newspaper is good concept and it has a bright future.
Some other reasons to support to my study are given below:
In India, there are many big cities like Chandigarh, Delhi, Chennai, Calcutta,
Mumbai etc. And they also have good markets and huge population, so there is
a great potential to hyper-local newspaper.
The living standard of Indian people also increases, because of growing
economy and literacy rate.
No other such big player in such type of hyper local concepts shows their
presence in India.
Most of the market are untouched which have a good potential for advertising
Opening and coming of big brand and MNCs in India day-by-day.
