FOREWORD
The Office of RNI has completed 58 years of its existence since 1st July 1956. The first
report was published in 1957 covering six months i.e. July to December 1956 when the office of RNI
was established in New Delhi. This is the 58th Annual Report.
This Annual Report, popularly known as Press in India compiled and submitted by the
Press Registrar to the Government of India, is a statutory requirement under Section 19 G of the
Press and Registration of Books Act, 1867. It is an analysis of the Indian Press with its focus
mainly on circulation as claimed by the publications in the Annual Statements filed online by them.
It is a matter of concern that out of the total 99,660 registered publications at present, only
19,755 or 19.82% filed their Annual Statements online to the office of RNI for the year 2013-14. We
hope to have greater compliance from the publishers in the years to come and continuous efforts
would be made to make them comply with their statutory obligations.
Advances in Information Technology have enabled RNI to devise certain applications for
facilitation of publishers. One such application is uploading all the details about title & registration
cases on its website for public view. This has led publishers to know the status of their title
applications as well as registration status instantly. RNI has also started sending information through
SMS and E-mail to the applicant about the status of title applications as well as registration
applications. All the rules, regulations & guidelines including the PRB Act, 1867, Registration of
Newspapers (Central) rules 1956 & other requisite formats have been put on the website. On-line e-
filing of Annual Statements, launched by RNI during 2012-13, was made mandatory from 2013-14.
This will help the stakeholders especially those from North-Eastern Region and Jammu & Kashmir
avoid coming to Delhi for redressing their grievances.
We also hope that this report will be of immense use to the print media, media analysts and
research scholars as well as aspiring young publishers and members of public.
I am happy to record my appreciation to the team of officials for their sincere efforts in
preparation of Annual Report 2013-14 and my gratitude to the Honble Minister I&B, Shri Prakash
Javadekar, Secretary I&B, Shri Bimal Julka and other officials of the Ministry of I&B for their
unstinted support and guidance.

I. GENERAL REVIEW
1.1.2. Print Media has responded to the new changes and challenges with its modern
approach. It has embraced Information Technology, which resulted in better coverage with
great speed and affordable price. The readership of newspapers is also growing.
1.1.3. Statistics show that people prefer their regional language publications and that
is why the regional publications are venturing out to bring editions from other cities where
there is sizeable population of the people knowing respective language.
1.1.4. Under the provision of the Section 19D of the Press and Registration of Books
Act, 1867, publishers of all registered publications (newspapers and periodicals) are required
to submit their Annual Statements to the Registrar of Newspapers for India. These Annual
Statements are the principal source of data for compilation of this Report. However,
submission of Annual Statements has not yet gathered momentum. Only a handful of the
publishers submit their Annual Statements every year. This year only 19.82% of the
publishers have submitted their annual statements. Hence, this report cannot be construed as
comprehensive. It can give only a broad overview about the general trend of the Indian Press
based on the number and claimed circulation of publications.
1.1.5. During 2013-14, 5,642 new publications were registered and 49 registered
publications ceased their publications. As on 31st March, 2014, there were 99,660 registered
publications on record as against 94,067 at the end of March, 2013. The total circulation of
publications increased from 40,50,37,930 copies per publishing day in 2012-13 to
45,05,86,212 copies per publishing day in 2013-14. The number of annual statements filed
online by registered publishers in the O/o RNI for the year 2013-14 was 19,755 (this includes
256 Miscellaneous publications, separately studied in Chapter X) against 19,007 in 2012-13
registering an increase of 3.94 per cent.
