Matrimonial Ads in Hindustan Times

This is the point where Hindustan Times stands out from all the other English newspapers in India. The matrimonial section of HT is the most trusted matrimonial site in English language to date in North Indian families not only within the Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian communities but also the vast North Indian diaspora who read HT in cities such as Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad.

This domination is explained by a simple reason. The decision-making of North Indian matrimonial searches is largely influenced by parents and older people in the family and they read Hindustan Times regularly and believe in its matrimonial lists as an authentic curated proposal. A printed HT matrimonial advertisement has an implicit social meaning, unlike in an online matrimonial portal where anyone can create a profile, a formal public advertisement has a social implication that the family is serious and has an intended purpose.

A properly written HT matrimonial classified text advertisement comprises of: community and subcommunity (where applicable), the age of the candidate, his/her date of birth, the education level, current occupation, and approximate earning capacity in case the candidate feels comfortable sharing the same, his/her present city of residence, the readiness to change, any special requirement about the match, and contact number/ email address. In the case of North Indian matrimonial advertisements, it is customary to mention the native state, as in this case, families tend to be, first of all, regionally matched in their choices in addition to the community.

Classified display matrimonial ads in HT are available to families who want a photograph incorporated and would yield much more response rates among families that view the listing.

HT matrimonial ad rates 2026: 95-125 per word of classified copy in the Delhi edition. Simultaneously available at public-noticeads.in are multi-edition packages in Delhi, Lucknow, Chandigarh, and Patna, to reach out to the largest possible audience of the North Indian matrimonial market.
