₹450 Base Rate (covers up to 15 words, Kannada Prabha's real included allowance)
+ Extra Word Rate × (Word Count − included words), Kannada Prabha bills by word count directly, no line conversion
+ Colour Charge, if selected
The included allowance is Kannada Prabha's own real figure, the same one the actual checkout uses -- not a generic estimate. GST is calculated separately at checkout, and any live offers are applied there too. This estimate isn't yet wired to the same unified pricing engine the checkout uses -- that consolidation is a separate initiative.

Advertising here spans 16 categories, each carrying its own current rate rather than a single flat price for the whole edition. The cheapest live option on this card is ₹450; final cost depends on category, size and whether colour is added. What's listed here is what's actually bookable today, updated as pricing changes rather than fixed in advance.
Shimoga sits within Karnataka, so coverage here can extend to other Karnataka editions through a combo package when a campaign needs more than one city. It's published in Kannada, which shapes who actually reads it -- worth checking before comparing against a differently-languaged paper for the same city.
Available categories include Matrimonial, Property for Sale, Property for Rent, Recruitment, Name Change, Business and 10 more, each with its own rate shown in the pricing table below. Circulation here runs to about 10,652 copies, per the publisher's own reporting. The pricing table below lists every category side by side, sortable rather than scattered across separate pages.
The steps stay the same regardless of category: compare rates, write the ad, pick a date, pay -- with a GST invoice issued automatically. Each category carries its own deadline, shown per listing rather than one fixed cut-off for the whole edition. Use the estimate tool for budgeting; the booking flow applies any active offers to arrive at the final figure.
The advantage of booking here rather than through a direct newspaper contact is having pricing, comparison and checkout all in one place, with a GST invoice generated automatically. 6 combo packages covering this edition are listed above, bundling it with others at one combined price. For campaigns that need to reach beyond Shimoga, 6 nearby editions are listed on this page too. Other newspapers serving Shimoga are compared here too, so the decision isn't made on one publisher's numbers alone.
Rates start from ₹450 on this rate card, the lowest listed category and size. The exact cost depends on category, ad size and colour.
