Everything \u2013 final text, approved photograph, supporting text and payment \u2013 must be confirmed with us before the deadline, to ensure that your notice will appear in the following morning's edition.<\/p>\r\n <p>For last minute \/ emergency submissions, please call us directly before 7:00 PM for next day publication. Late window slots may be subject to page availability and may have a publisher-side surcharge, but our team will provide you with a truthful answer regarding what is possible before you commit to bid.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p class=\"font-bold mt-4 mb-2\">Mandatory documents \u2014 TOI will not publish without at least one of the following:<\/p>\r\n <ul>\r\n <li>Official death certificate (scan or clear photograph of the original)<\/li>\r\n <li>Cremation slip\/burial receipt (can be used for funeral notification for same day or next day funerals if death certificate has not yet been issued)<\/li>\r\n <li>A physician's note that contains the date and diagnosis of death on the letterhead of the hospital or physician.<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n <p>TOI's need to verify the identity of the person making the booking \u2013 A scan of Aadhaar Card or PAN Card of the family member\/representative making the booking request will be required for TOI's records. This is a standard requirement for all obituary\/tribute category ads by the publisher and cannot be changed.<\/p>\r\n <p>If any of these documents are not on hand, please contact us before assuming that they will not be able to book. In some exceptional cases, we can make recommendations as to the documents that TOI will accept as interim proof.<\/p>\r\n\r\n <h2 id=\"photo-specs\" class=\"text-2xl font-bold mt-12 mb-6 text-brand-dark\">Photo Specifications for TOI Display Ads<\/h2>\r\n <p>The Times of India has always been very good on printing and contoured paper remains a technical limitation, though one that you should be mindful of before sending us a photo. The following is what works best:<\/p>\r\n <ul>\r\n <li><strong>Resolution & Format:<\/strong> Include a high-resolution (JPG or PDF) photograph. Images from WhatsApp or social media are often compressed to much less than 300 DPI, which is the minimum for clean newspaper printing. When scanning a hard copy photograph, choose a resolution of 300 DPI or higher.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Colour TOI ads:<\/strong> If advertising in colour: Submit the clearest and brightest version of the photograph available (Bombay Times and some supplement positions). Our design team will convert standard black and white Classified Display ads to a grayscale and adjust contrast for newsprint's ink absorption. A greyscale proof will be sent to you prior to submission to check if it looks OK.<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n <p>The standard width of one column TOI obituary display ad is about 3.8 to 4 cm wide. Two column ads are about 8cm in width. We'll let you know the size of text and photograph area your notice needs to be.<\/p>\r\n <p>If the photograph has a suitable background or a suitable framing, then we remove a detail of the background or replace the background with a light or white tone for the photograph, which is not charged for anything. A border style of your choice \u2013 plain black frame, double-rule or a religious or cultural symbol (Om, Cross, Khanda, Star of David, crescent or others) is also added to make the notice look structured and dignified in keeping with TOI's house style.<\/p>\r\n\r\n <h2 id=\"features\" class=\"text-2xl font-bold mt-12 mb-6 text-brand-dark\">Key Features of Our Times of India Obituary Booking Service<\/h2>\r\n <ul>\r\n <li><strong>Authorised direct access to TOI:<\/strong> We are empanelled with Bennett Coleman & Co. Ltd. (The Times of India's publisher) which means all our submissions are direct, all slots are confirmed and all our rates are real not inflated third party rates.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Emergency and late window processing:<\/strong> Death notices often require immediate and\/or late placement. Our staff is especially equipped to deal with last minute requests and can handle TOI's late submission up until the point of press release live. Let us make a preliminary call; we will advise you instantly what is possible.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>Bilingual coordination within the TOI group:<\/strong> If the need arises for the coordination of bilingualism in the TOI group, Maharashtra Times is a TOI group paper. Vijay Karnataka is also a part of the group for Kannada.

We know what TOI requires for each of their editions, and where obituate classifieds go, as well as any premium page opportunities that may exist for larger display ads.

A TOI publication is considered as the final public announcement by families, housing societies and organisations.<\/li>\r\n <li>Courts, banks and government offices universally accept a Times of India clipping to be accepted as authoritative proof where a family needs to show that a death or estate notice was published.<\/li>\r\n <li><strong>E-paper archiving for long term access:<\/strong> TOI's e-paper archive is one of the most comprehensive and easily accessible e-paper archives in India.
