Cost formula: Width (cm) × Height (cm) × Rate (per sq.cm) = Total (excl. GST and agency discounts)
Budget tip: Chennai and Bangalore editions start at ₹385/sq.cm — roughly 5× cheaper than the Andhra Pradesh edition (₹1,895/sq.cm). If your audience is pan-South India and your budget is tight, the Chennai/Bangalore edition at ₹385 combined with Hyderabad gets meaningful reach at a fraction of the AP-only cost. Call 9821984000.

How to Book

How to Book an Ad in Deccan Chronicle

There were three complicated issues: choosing the rate, selecting the appropriate edition, and verifying the booking. Let's take a look at how each is utilized with Riyo.

Phase 01
Decide the rate
Used to mean a sub-agent quoting a number you couldn't verify. We work from the same rate card the Deccan Chronicle office reads — broken out by edition, category, and format — and quote you the agency rate, up to 15% off.

0:00 — Call or WhatsApp 9821984000. Tell us the category, edition, and date. That's all we need to start.
0:05 — Get a recommendation. Classified display with logo, appointment ad, front-page display, or gazetted statutory notice.
0:10 — Hear the bundle math. First booking: flat 5% off. Repeat: flat 10% off. Buy 4 Get 1 Free on bulk.
Phase 02
Draft the ad
Used to mean a faxed proof, a phone call, a re-fax. You don't compose anything. Send a rough draft — even two lines on WhatsApp — and we write, format, and design it the way the paper expects.

0:15 — Send your content. WhatsApp/Email content. Name change/lost document: send affidavit — we draft.
0:20 — We add enhancements. Logo, photo, border, colour suggestions.
0:30 — You get a proof. The ad is exactly as it will print. Nothing prints without your approval.
Phase 03
Release it
Used to mean a trip to a newspaper office. Once you approve the proof, the rest runs without you — desk submission, press confirmation, and the tearsheet are all on us.

Approve & pay. UPI, NEFT, card, or cheque. Instant confirmation + GST invoice.
We handle the editorial desk. DC's desk checks category fit and regulatory wording. Copy clears on first read.
Morning — it prints. An e-tearsheet arrives within 48–72 hours — your proof of publication for legal and regulatory records.

One call starts it; the rest runs without you. Spotted an error after approving? Call immediately — corrections are usually possible before the press run, never after publication. [Call 9821984000] · [WhatsApp Us] · [Email info@riyoadvertising.com]

Call 9821984000 for details →

💍 Matrimonial

Best day: Sunday (Sunday Chronicle). Deccan Chronicle carries the highest volume of matrimonial ads on Sunday, reaching millions of Telugu-speaking families across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, with additional reach into Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala. Most advertisers choose a classified display — a photo or bordered ad pulls noticeably more response than plain text. Classified display: ₹385–₹430 (Chennai/Bangalore) · ₹1,660–₹1,895 (Hyderabad) · ₹1,895–₹2,160/sq.cm (AP) · Book 2 Get 2 Free offer available.

💼 Recruitment / Appointment

Best days: Sunday & Wednesday. Sunday Chronicle gets the highest single-day sale of the week, making it the most effective slot for reaching top candidates across Hyderabad and AP's IT, pharma, finance, and manufacturing sectors. Appointment display: call for edition-specific rate · min 8×5 cm · colour + logo outperforms plain text.

🏠 Property / Real Estate

Best day: Sunday. Sunday Chronicle reaches serious property buyers and investors across Hyderabad and Andhra Pradesh — the day when families make real estate decisions. Classified display: ₹1,660–₹1,895/sq.cm (Hyderabad) · ₹1,895–₹2,160/sq.cm (AP).

⚖ Public Notice / Legal / Tender

Any weekday · AP and Hyderabad editions strongest. Deccan Chronicle is a gazetted publication for statutory compliance in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh — accepted by courts, government departments, company registrars, and banks for tender invitations, court notices, and bank recovery notices. Tender/public notice: ₹4,225–₹4,480/sq.cm (Hyderabad) · ₹5,140–₹5,390/sq.cm (AP) · e-tearsheet sent automatically as compliance proof.

📝 Name Change

Any day · Notarised affidavit copy mandatory. The published ad itself serves as your legally valid proof. Email the affidavit and we draft the wording and confirm your approval before print. Classified display: edition-dependent rate.

📃 Lost & Found / Loss of Documents

Any day · Often legally required. Lost passport, degree certificate, marksheet, share certificate, property document — a published notice is frequently mandatory for reissue. We draft the correct legal wording.

Backgrounder · The Newspaper
Deccan Chronicle, at a Glance — What You're Booking, and Why It Works

Advertising in Deccan Chronicle

It is the English newspaper of record in Hyderabad and the most widely read English daily in Andhra Pradesh, used by the Telugu-speaking families, IT professionals, government departments and corporations of AP and Telangana every morning. It is the recommended document for tenders and court notices, bank recovery notices, government announcements, and statutory requirements in both the states.

Reach is not the distinguishing characteristic of a newspaper ad. It is for the purpose of the reader. A family looking through Sunday Chronicle matrimonials. A computer expert reading the job postings on Wednesday. A developer who's looking at Sunday's property listings — all of which are still being actively looked — in a supplement that is updated throughout the week. It's for this reason that Deccan Chronicle is not a choice for matrimonial, recruitment, property and statutory notices and education to the English-reading masses of Telugu-speaking South India. It is the medium the response is coming from.

And yet, the edition of mathematics confuses people. The AP edition costs ₹2,160/sq.cm, the Chennai edition ₹430/sq.cm — the same newspaper, different audience and a cost gap of 5×. Pick the wrong one and you end up overspending on a crowd you don't need, or underspending on one you want. Come in to the counter and pay up. Use a sub-agent and you'll receive a quote you can't check.

Since 2003, the problem that Riyo has solved. Simply call 9821984000 and you will have the exact rate for your edition. You will receive up to 15% off, an ad-drafting complimentary, a proof before printing and the e-tearsheet the day of publication for compliance filing. As we read all this rate card for 23 years, we know which edition, which supplement and which day to pay for.

Pick Where Your Ad Runs

Pick Where Your Ad Runs — Deccan Chronicle Supplements

Deccan Chronicle isn't a single paper. Each supplement targets a different audience on a different day — a Sunday Chronicle matrimonial is read by a different reader than an education ad in a Monday School Chronicle. The selection of the best supplement is just as crucial as the selection of the edition.

Ready-To-Use Copy

Sample Ad Formats — Copy and Adapt

Compliant templates designed to perform well in the columns of Deccan Chronicle.

[Community] family seeks alliance for [son/daughter], [Age] yrs, [Height], [Education], working as [Profession] in [City]. [Additional details — e.g. caste no bar]. Contact: [Phone/Email]

🏠 Sample 3 — Property

FOR SALE/RENT: [BHK] Flat, [Sq.ft], [Locality], [City]. [Floor/Amenities]. Price: ₹[Amount]. Contact: [Phone]

Hiring Guide

How to Post a Job Ad in Deccan Chronicle

The Sunday Chronicle supplement has the highest single-day readership of the week in Deccan Chronicle, a leading recruitment platform in South India particularly in Hyderabad and Andhra Pradesh, which specializes in providing recruitment solutions for IT, Pharma, Finance and Manufacturing jobs across the state. Correct execution is the key.

What to put in the ad:

→ Job title: first two words, not buried in paragraph three.
→ Company name: unless it's a confidential search.
→ Key qualifications: 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 job ad isn't getting applications:

✕ Wrong day: Sunday and Wednesday are DC's two recruitment peaks; a random weekday page reaches a general audience, not active job seekers.
✕ No salary range: loses 30–40% of qualified candidates immediately.
✕ Wrong edition: a Hyderabad IT role placed in the Chennai edition reaches the wrong city; use AP for statewide reach.
✕ Vague job title: "Software Engineer — Hyderabad — ₹8–12L" gets read. "Staff Needed" gets scrolled past.
✕ Text-only for senior roles: a colour appointment ad with your company logo outperforms plain text.
✕ Only ran once: 2–4 insertions over 3–4 weeks beat a single run significantly.

Hiring Intent Seasonality

🔴 HIGH
Post-appraisal (Jan–Mar)
highest job-switch intent
🔴 HIGH
Mid-year surge / academic (Jul–Sep)
recruitment peak season
⚪ AVOID
Festive season & summer lull (Oct & May)
low hiring activity

⚠️ Terms to Avoid — Legal Compliance

DC's editorial desk reviews ads before publication. Discriminatory language gets rejected — a missed week and a delayed hire. Avoid:
✕ Age limits: use "2–5 years experience" instead.
✕ Gender language: "Male only," "Salesman".
✕ Appearance: "fair complexion," "good-looking".
✕ Marital status: "married preferred".
✕ Regional exclusions: "Locals only".
✕ Misleading titles: dressing up cold-call sales as "executive".

Run an ad that underperformed? Call 9821984000 — tell us what ran and how many responses you got. We'll identify the issue. No charge for that conversation.

💍 Deccan Chronicle Matrimonial Ad Guide

Why Sunday Is the Only Day That Matters: The Deccan Chronicle advertises the most matrimonial ads on Sunday (the day when millions of families visit the pages together in Telugu-speaking states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, and more in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala). People who are looking are reached by a Sunday ad while a general audience is reached by a weekday ad. If money is available, reserve 2-4 back-to-back Sundays - response grows week by week and the Book 2 Get 2 Free doubles up your purchase. Many matrimonial advertisers select classified display.

• Rates: Andhra Pradesh B&W ₹1,895 / Colour ₹2,160. Hyderabad ₹1,660 / ₹1,895. Chennai/Bangalore ₹385 / ₹430.
• Offers: Matrimonial Special: Book 2 ads, get 2 free · Multi-city Bundle: Up to 15% off on 3+ editions · First booking: Flat 5% off · Repeat: Flat 10% off.
• Booking tip: community → age → education → profession, in that order — that's the sequence Telugu matrimonial readers scan.

🕊 Deccan Chronicle Obituary Ad — How to Book Quickly

This is never at a convenient time. We've handled thousands of bereavement bookings and built the process to be as simple as possible.

• Option & Details: Minimum size: 4×5 cm (20 sq.cm). Rate: Concessional social rate below standard classified display — call 9821984000 for current figure. Same day / next day: Possible — call before 12 PM to confirm your cutoff.
• What you need: Death certificate or doctor's note · Photo of the deceased (phone quality is fine). For same-day: Call 9821984000 directly. Don't start with a WhatsApp message and wait.

⚖ Deccan Chronicle Public Notice — Get It Right

Deccan Chronicle is an approved, gazetted publication for statutory compliance in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh accepted by courts, Government offices, company Registrars, Banks for tender invitations, court notices, statutory disclosures, and bank recovery.

• Covers: Name change (notarised affidavit mandatory), lost document (passport, degree, share certificate), tender and court notices, insolvency and NCLT, bank recovery, AGM, EGM, financial results.
• Rates: Public Notice/Tender B&W/Colour per sq.cm: Andhra Pradesh ₹5,140/₹5,390. Hyderabad ₹4,225/₹4,480.
• Compliance: e-tearsheet sent automatically after publication as your compliance proof for legal filings.
