Economic growth is a whopping 7.4% for the last four quarters (ending March 2010), fuelled by consumer and government spending. The driving sectors? the success of IT, IT services, and outsourcing is well known, and a long list follows: chemicals, food, real estate, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, retail, and more. It’s an English-speaking market with a middle class that’s larger than the entire US population, and it’s growing in every direction. Snoozing means losing.
The Times Group, publishers of The Times of India, The Economic Times, and an awful lot more in print, online, broadcast, outdoor, and face-to-face, is the surest way to capture this burgeoning market.

India: Economic Times gains readers in a slowdown
The Economic Times is the only business daily that consistently finds a place amongst the Top 10 English newspapers in the country, beating many general news brands hollow. At No. 6 on the list of top dailies nationally, it is added 4% to its readership with an Average Issue Readership (AIR) of 783,000, up from 752,000 in the last round of the Indian Readership Survey (IRS). AIR measures daily readers of the paper, and is a widely-accepted benchmark for advertisers and media planners.
To put these readership numbers in perspective, ET's closest competitor in the business newspaper space trails by more than 600,000 readers. Moreover, ET is two-and-a-half times the combined readership of the second-and-third-largest business dailies in India.
The IRS figures spanned a period of uncertainty in which readers have been grappling with an economic slowdown, a global financial crisis, a dodgy stock market and large-scale job cuts. ET has always stepped in to guide the reader through choppy waters with its unbiased reporting and insights.
