This page covers Retail /Shopping advertisement rates in The Hindu's Mumbai edition, priced on this category alone rather than blended with the rest of the paper's rate card. The current base rate is ₹526, with the final total depending on ad length and whether colour is added. What's shown here reflects The Hindu's current live rate for Retail /Shopping, not a historical or estimated figure.
This edition sits within Maharashtra -- relevant if a Retail /Shopping campaign needs to extend beyond Mumbai alone. The Hindu publishes in English, which shapes who actually reads a Retail /Shopping ad placed here.
The base rate here comfortably fits a Retail /Shopping ad of about 50-375 words; longer copy is billed at the extra-line rate. Cost is built from a base line count plus any extra lines needed -- both shown in the Rate Summary on this page.
