For job ads, select your industry group (IT, Banking, Healthcare, Education, etc.). The heading has a direct influence on response volume.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Choose Your Date:<\/strong> Select from our calendar of dates. For recruitment ads, always select Sunday. Matrimonial ads have the highest response rate on Sundays. The day doesn't matter for government job announcements or legal notices, except that Sunday has more impact.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Write Your Ad:<\/strong> Use our live preview tool to write and format your copy. For a job ad, mention: job title, key qualifications, minimum experience required, job location and one clear means of contact (email or phone).

A minimum of 3\u20135 lines is typically required. The cost per line varies by edition \u2014 Mumbai and Delhi are the most expensive; regional editions are cheaper.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Classified Display Ads:<\/strong> Charged per square centimetre. Logos, colour, custom fonts, and borders are permitted. Minimum size requirements apply per category.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Main Paper Display Ads:<\/strong> Charged per square centimetre, with significant premium loading for Page 1 (Front Page), Page 3, the back page, and the front page of supplements. Solus (exclusive) positions command the highest rates.<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n\r\n <h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold mt-8 mb-3 text-brand\">Key Cost Factors<\/h3>\r\n <ul>\r\n <li><strong>Edition:<\/strong> The Mumbai and Delhi editions are the costliest, attracting the highest newspaper ad rates because of their circulation, affluent readership and advertiser demand. Bangalore, Hyderabad and Kolkata are mid-tier. Regional editions like Patna, Ranchi or Bhubaneswar are much cheaper and are perfect for targeted regional campaigns.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Day of Publication:<\/strong> Sunday has the highest premium of the week across all formats as it is the most widely read day. This applies particularly to the jobs classified and matrimonial sections.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Enhancements:<\/strong> There is a small charge for bold text, tick marks, background colour and logo insertion. These additions make ads more visible in a heavily trafficked classifieds section and yield a higher response rate.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>National Combo Package:<\/strong> Booking Mumbai + Delhi + Bangalore + Kolkata together qualifies for a per-edition discount. Riyo Advertising can design your targeted geography mix to be the most budget-friendly.<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n\r\n \r\n <h2 id=\"faq\" class=\"text-2xl font-bold mt-10 mb-4 text-brand-dark\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\r\n\r\n <div class=\"brand-faq-item\">\r\n <button class=\"brand-faq-question\" aria-expanded=\"false\" onclick=\"toggleFaq(this)\">\r\n What is the cost of <a href=\"https:\/\/riyoadvertising.com\/times-of-india-classified-advertising-online.shtml\">classified ads in Times of India<\/a>?\r\n <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down brand-faq-icon\"><\/i>\r\n <\/button>\r\n <div class=\"brand-faq-answer\">\r\n <p>Classified text ads in the Times of India begin at around ₹500 per line.

The heading has a direct influence on response volume.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Choose Your Date:<\/strong> Select from our calendar of dates. For recruitment ads, always select Sunday. Matrimonial ads have the highest response rate on Sundays. The day doesn't matter for government job announcements or legal notices, except that Sunday has more impact.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Write Your Ad:<\/strong> Use our live preview tool to write and format your copy. For a job ad, mention: job title, key qualifications, minimum experience required, job location and one clear means of contact (email or phone).

A minimum of 3\u20135 lines is typically required. The cost per line varies by edition \u2014 Mumbai and Delhi are the most expensive; regional editions are cheaper.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Classified Display Ads:<\/strong> Charged per square centimetre. Logos, colour, custom fonts, and borders are permitted. Minimum size requirements apply per category.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Main Paper Display Ads:<\/strong> Charged per square centimetre, with significant premium loading for Page 1 (Front Page), Page 3, the back page, and the front page of supplements.

Bangalore, Hyderabad and Kolkata are mid-tier. Regional editions like Patna, Ranchi or Bhubaneswar are much cheaper and are perfect for targeted regional campaigns.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Day of Publication:<\/strong> Sunday has the highest premium of the week across all formats as it is the most widely read day. This applies particularly to the jobs classified and matrimonial sections.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Enhancements:<\/strong> There is a small charge for bold text, tick marks, background colour and logo insertion. These additions make ads more visible in a heavily trafficked classifieds section and yield a higher response rate.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>National Combo Package:<\/strong> Booking Mumbai + Delhi + Bangalore + Kolkata together qualifies for a per-edition discount. Riyo Advertising can design your targeted geography mix to be the most budget-friendly.<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n\r\n \r\n <h2 id=\"faq\" class=\"text-2xl font-bold mt-10 mb-4 text-brand-dark\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\r\n\r\n <div class=\"brand-faq-item\">\r\n <button class=\"brand-faq-question\" aria-expanded=\"false\" onclick=\"toggleFaq(this)\">\r\n What is the cost of <a href=\"https:\/\/riyoadvertising.com\/times-of-india-classified-advertising-online.shtml\">classified ads in Times of India<\/a>?\r\n <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-down brand-faq-icon\"><\/i>\r\n <\/button>\r\n <div class=\"brand-faq-answer\">\r\n <p>Classified text ads in the Times of India begin at around ₹500 per line.
