The price of advertising in Pune Mirror is determined by a number of important variables, including colour, placement, size, and edition. The cost of an advertisement in the Pune Mirror can range from ₹250 to ₹15 lakhs, depending on the format, size, and placement of the ad.
The total cost of your advertisement is determined by multiplying the width × height (in cm) by the relevant per-sq-cm fee. All costs are given per square centimetre. Because of the increased reader engagement and visual prominence that these page positions provide, premium placements like the Front Page (₹1,325/sq cm), Back Page (₹1,065/sq cm), and Page 3 (₹975/sq cm) have higher rates than the inside page base cost of ₹865/sq cm. The team at Riyo Advertising will take into account the product category, ad size, and number of insertions when determining the amount of discount on stated rate cards.
A five-line unit costs 300, while the minimum fee for classified recruiting advertising is only 5 per line. After five lines, each additional line costs 60. For ₹100, a Tickmark option is offered. With a personalised layout, borders, logos, and photos, Classified Display Ads offer a visually enhanced presence at a price far lower than the main editorial display area. They cost ₹138 per square centimetre.

As part of its strategic development of its Mirror compact newspaper brand into India's major metropolitan centers, the Times Group, India's most powerful and extensively distributed media conglomerate, established Pune Mirror in 2008. Pune Mirror, along with Mumbai Mirror, Bengaluru Mirror, and Ahmedabad Mirror, creates a unique, city-specific editorial ecosystem that offers the national calibre of Times Group journalism with an intensely local editorial personality. It covers Pune's unique political landscape, business environment, cultural events, social conversations, and civic issues with a depth and authenticity that national broadsheets cannot match for a Pune readership.
The small size of Pune Mirror is more than just a design decision. It is a purposeful editorial approach tailored to the lifestyle of Pune's main target audience, which includes young professionals, college students, startup founders, IT sector workers, and aspirational millennial and Gen Z consumers who want thorough, excellent news and city intelligence in a format they can interact with during a morning commute, a lunch break, or a quick coffee shop reading session. In Maharashtra's second-largest city, this reader profile—young, educated, digitally savvy but still interested in newspapers, with substantial discretionary income and consumer aspirations—is one of the most economically important audience categories.
