How to Book

How to book an ad in Bangalore Mirror

Three things used to be hard — decide the rate, draft the ad, and book the confirmation. Here's how each works with Riyo Advertising.

PHASE 01
Decide the rate.
Used to need an agent quoting a number you couldn't verify.
Call or WhatsApp 9821984000 with your category, size, and date. We work from the same rate card the Bangalore Mirror office reads and quote you the agency rate with every applicable discount. Flat 5% off first booking, 10% repeat bookings automatically.
PHASE 02
Draft the ad.
Used to mean a faxed proof, a phone call, a re-fax.
Send a rough draft to info@riyoadvertising.com or WhatsApp. We write, format, and design it the way the paper expects. Obituary: photo of deceased + free artwork. Name change: legal wording drafted from affidavit/gazette photocopy. You get a proof of print before publication.
PHASE 03
Release it.
Used to need a trip to a newspaper office.
Pay by UPI, NEFT, card, or cheque. Receive instant confirmation, reference number and GST invoice. Your ad prints on the chosen date, and a scanned PDF tearsheet lands in your email after publication as legal proof.

Advertising in Bangalore Mirror, Compact Newspaper

One of Bengaluru's most-read compact dailies — in one minute.

Bangalore Mirror is the compact daily advertisers in Bengaluru ask for by name. Published in a compact format by the Times Group, it reaches a young, urban, high-disposable-income audience of tech professionals, startups, corporate executives, and educational hubs. It provides dedicated supplements, city-wide coverage, and highly engaged reader intent. Reaching this audience is not just about placing a general ad; it is about target audience purpose, where readers browse specific columns that remain active all week.

Category sub-sections present your ad to the exact target audience you desire, without the clutter of an unfocused online portal. That's why in Bengaluru the compact daily isn't optional — it's the medium that the response actually comes from.

— The Riyo Advertising desk · Updated for the 2026 rate revision

Booking it, though, was never simple — the published rate card is made up of pages of rules and premiums. That's the problem Riyo Advertising has solved since 2003: one call to 9821984000 gets the exact rate, 15–35% below counter, free drafting, a proof before print, and the tearsheet after publication.

Recruitment Guide

How to Post a Job Ad in Bangalore Mirror

Bangalore Mirror targets the young professionals, IT industry, startups, corporate executives, educational institutes, healthcare organizations and SMEs in Bengaluru. Reaching the right candidates is all about getting the execution right.

What to put in the ad body

Job title: First two words, not buried in paragraph three.
Company name: Unless it's a confidential search.
Qualifications: Key credentials and years of experience.
Location: City, hybrid, or remote. Be specific.
Salary range: This matters more than anything else.
How to apply: Email, portal link, or phone.

Why your Bangalore Mirror job ad isn't getting applications

Wrong day: Wednesday and Sunday pull stronger recruitment readership; weekday editions suit urgent local hiring only.
No salary range: An ad without salary loses 30–40% of qualified candidates immediately.
Wrong section: Recruitment ads belong in the dedicated recruitment category, not the general classified pages.
Vague job title: "Software Developer — Bengaluru — ₹8–12L" gets read. "Staff Needed" gets scrolled past.
Text-only for senior roles: A classified display ad with your company logo outperforms plain text for corporate hiring.
Only ran once: 2–4 insertions over 3–4 weeks generate far more cumulative response than a single run.

Hiring Intent Seasonality

🔴 HIGH
Jan–Mar: Post-appraisal
Highest job-switch intent period
🔴 HIGH
Jul–Sep: Mid-year surge
Mid-year hiring surge; academic-year appointments
AVOID
Oct & May: Festive slowdown & Summer lull
Lower activity periods for recruiting

⚠️ Legal Compliance Checklist

Bangalore Mirror's editorial team reviews advertisements before publication. To prevent copy rejection:
✕ Avoid age limits ("Below 30 only"). Use "2–5 years experience".
✕ Avoid gender exclusions ("Male only" or titles like "Salesman").
✕ Avoid appearance requirements ("fair complexion", "good-looking").
✕ Avoid regional exclusions ("Locals only").
✕ Avoid misleading titles (dressing up cold-call sales as "executive").

❤ Matrimonial Guide

Sunday is the only day that matters. Reaches urban, family-oriented readers.

Rates: Classified text starts at ₹500 onwards; Classified display ₹265/sq.cm onwards.
Offers: First booking flat 5% off, repeat booking 10% off automatically.
Writing tip: Always follow the order: community, age, education, profession. A bordered display ad pulls better response.

🕯 Obituary Guide

Obituary and remembrance notices carry special discounted social rates.

Minimum size: 20 sq.cm (4 cm × 5 cm).
Urgent Release: Same-day or next-day possible. Call 9821984000 to confirm cutoffs.
Requirement: Death certificate or doctor's note, text, and a photo of the deceased.

⚖ Public Notice Guide

Accepted for court notices, bank notices, title clearances, and tenders.

Covers: Name change, lost documents, NCLT, tender notices, recoveries.
Rates: ₹95 fixed for 3×5 box ad; ₹114/sq.cm double column.
Verification: Scanned copy of publication or e-tearsheet is provided automatically as legal proof.
