Top Ad Categories — In Detail

Our six most frequently booked categories with complete information about what each covers, who it is for, and how we help.

PERSONAL

Matrimonial Ads

Matrimonial newspaper ads have been the cornerstone of matchmaking in Indian families for generations. Whether seeking a bride or groom of any religion, community, or profession, a newspaper matrimonial ad reaches thousands of eligible families daily. Unlike online platforms, newspapers carry inherent trust that families across India rely upon. We help craft the perfect notice in English, Hindi, Punjabi, or any regional language — as classified text or display ads with photos, in Tribune, Times of India, Hindustan Times, Dainik Jagran, and 500+ others.

Real Estate Ads

Real estate newspaper ads remain one of the most effective ways to connect genuine property buyers, sellers, and renters in India. Whether you're a builder launching a new project, a homeowner selling a house, or an agent listing commercial spaces, newspaper property ads attract serious inquirers. Malik Advertising places your ad in Times of India, Hindustan Times, Tribune, Dainik Bhaskar, and Punjab Kesari — ensuring maximum visibility at the most competitive rates.

BUSINESS

Recruitment Ads

Newspaper recruitment ads remain a highly effective hiring channel across India, particularly for reaching candidates in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities who may not be active on online portals. Whether hiring factory workers, office staff, teachers, or senior executives, a well-placed job vacancy notice generates quality applicants. We publish in Times of India and Hindustan Times for national hiring, or in Tribune and Dainik Jagran for state-level outreach.

LEGAL / PERSONAL

Name Change Ads

A name change advertisement is a standard step in most official name-change processes in India. When you officially change your name — whether after marriage, religious conversion, or personal choice — most authorities and state gazette offices expect a notice published in widely circulated newspapers. This published notice, often alongside a Gazette Notification, serves as supporting evidence for updating Aadhaar, PAN, passport, and educational certificates. We ensure publication in the correct newspaper satisfying your state's legal requirements.

Book Name Change Ad →
LEGAL

Legal Notice Ads

Legal notices in newspapers serve as formal, documented public communications — creditor announcements, shareholder meetings, company dissolutions, NPA notices, and statutory publications. The newspaper must meet specific circulation criteria, appear on specific dates, and a published clipping must be preserved as legal proof. Malik Advertising ensures your notice appears in exactly the right publication with certified tear sheets and clippings for court submission.

PERSONAL

Obituary & Remembrance

An obituary advertisement is a dignified tribute placed in a newspaper to announce the passing of a loved one and inform family, friends, and the community about funeral arrangements or condolence gatherings. Remembrance notices, placed on death anniversaries, keep the memory of departed loved ones alive. Malik Advertising handles these bookings with exceptional sensitivity and care — working quickly and compassionately to ensure publication without any added burden on the family.
