Booked a matrimonial ad in Maharashtra Times for my son. The Ads2Publish team advised us to go for the Sunday edition and we received 30+ genuine responses within a week. Excellent service and the Marathi ad copy they drafted for us was perfect.
I needed a Name Change ad urgently for my passport renewal. Ads2Publish booked Times of India + Maharashtra Times as a combo the same afternoon. The ad appeared the very next day. Smooth process, fair pricing, and the team was very patient with all my questions.
We've been using Ads2Publish for our company's recruitment ads in Times of India and Economic Times for over 3 years now. Their advice on timing the Wednesday Ascent edition for banking roles made a real difference in the quality of candidates we received.
We booked a property ad in TOI Times Property for our flat in Powai. Ads2Publish helped us choose the right Saturday edition and we had serious inquiries within 2 days. Very professional team who truly know the Mumbai market.
Our family wanted to book a matrimonial ad in Gujarat Samachar for our daughter. Ads2Publish handled everything online and the ad appeared exactly as we wanted in the Bombay edition. Great service for the Gujarati community in Mumbai.
I was confused about which newspaper to use for a lost document notice. The Ads2Publish team explained everything clearly, recommended Free Press Journal + Navshakti as the most affordable combo for Mumbai, and the entire booking was done in 10 minutes online.

Mumbai - formerly known as Bombay - is India's financial capital and most populous city, with a metropolitan area population of over 2 crore. As the country's commercial nerve centre, generating over 6% of India's GDP, Mumbai is home to the headquarters of most major Indian corporations, banks, and media houses. The city's cosmopolitan identity spans languages, communities, and cultures in a way that no other Indian city can match.
Despite its reputation as a city always ahead of the curve, newspaper advertising in Bombay remains highly effective. The banker in Nariman Point still browses Times of India's Saturday property supplement when looking for a flat. The Marathi family in Dadar still trusts Maharashtra Times for matrimonial alliances. The Gujarati business community in Ghatkopar still reads Bombay Samachar over their morning chai. Name Change ads remain a legal print requirement at Mumbai's Passport Seva Kendras. Obituary ads continue to be the standard community announcement across all of the city's diverse communities.
Mumbai's newspaper landscape - 27+ papers across 6 languages serving vastly different communities across the city and the wider MMR - makes expert selection essential. Our Mumbai team's 21 years of on-the-ground experience in this city takes that complexity off your plate entirely.
