Is a Deccan Chronicle notice accepted as a ‘newspaper of record’?

Yes. Deccan Chronicle is a widely-accepted English daily of record; courts, sub-registrars and banks routinely accept a notice published in it.

Police / my lawyer told me to advertise first. Is that normal?

Very common — for lost documents, property dealings and certain disputes, publication is the required first step before the duplicate / mutation / case proceeds.

Does the notice need to be in a specific city’s edition?

Usually the city where the property or matter sits. If you’re unsure, tell us the case and we’ll advise the right edition.

Will an E-FIR work for a lost-document notice?

Yes — an E-FIR / online GD copy is accepted. It does not need a physical stamp or signature.

What do company / corporate notices need?

A declaration or board resolution on company letterhead with seal and signature. We’ll format the wording to match.

Court-directed notice — what do you need from me?

A copy of the court order, so the published wording matches the direction exactly.

How is a legal notice priced?

Per line of the published legal wording. A typical notice is 6–8 lines; the calculator shows the exact figure once your matter is set.

Can you keep the wording tight to reduce cost?

Yes — our desk formats the shortest valid version that still satisfies the requirement, and shows the line count live.

Can the notice run tomorrow?

Yes if booked by 6 PM today. Court deadline approaching? Flag it and we prioritise.

What proof do I get for the court / registrar?

A stamped page from the Deccan Chronicle e-paper to view and save, plus a publication certificate on request.

No surprises on price

Exactly how your ad is priced — before you pay a rupee

The single most common question we get is ‘how was this number calculated?’ So here it is, in full. The price you see is the price you pay.

How it’s measured

Charged per printed line

Classified text is priced by printed line, not by character. A line is one row as it appears in the newspaper column.
Most notices run 3–6 lines. Long words that wrap to a new line count as the line they fill — the live preview shows the exact wrap.
A contact number, name or address all sit inside your lines — there is no separate ‘per-number’ charge.
