Key Cost Factors for Central Chronicle Advertisement

📏 Ad size

— All display formats are priced at a flat ₹640 per sq. cm. Our team helps you identify the right size for your budget and campaign objective.

📄 Page placement

— Front page and jacket positions carry the highest premium. Page 3 and the back page offer strong visibility at mid-tier rates. Inner pages are the most cost-effective option for text-heavy notices.

🎨 Colour vs. B&W

— Full colour commands significantly higher reader attention and costs more. We strongly recommend colour for retail, automobile, real estate, and festive campaigns. Black and white is perfectly suited for legal content and tender notices.

📅 Publication date

— Major holidays including Diwali, Dussehra, Republic Day, and Independence Day have limited inventory and carry premium pricing. Always book 2–3 weeks ahead for holiday editions.

📦 Bulk and combo bookings

— Save by booking four or more insertions at once. You can also combine this paper with The Hitavada for complete English print coverage across both Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh at bundled rates.
