 Financial Chronicle comes to Delhi
 
Financial Chronicle, a business daily from Deccan Chronicle group of publications in association with the International Herald Tribune, was launched in Delhi in April. The newspaper, priced at Rs 2 per copy, has existing editions in Hyderabad, Chennai and Mumbai. This expansion is surprising media watchers as advertising is pretty low, particularly for business dailies in the country.

 And, Lokmat comes to Goa
 
Marathi-language daily Lokmat had its another edition in Goa last month. The publishers have launched the Goa edition on an assumption that this tourist state is largely underserved and underestimated.
 "INM isn't quitting Dainik Jagran"
 
Troubled Irish publishing company Independent News & Media isn't selling off its stake in Jagran Prakashan - publishers of India's largest read daily newspaper Dainik Jagran. In response to news reports that INM may liquidate its assets here in India too to meet its debt obligations, Jagran has claimed that INM has shown no interest in selling of its stake in their company.

 MP-based daily launches 2 tabloids as supplements
 
Madhya Pradesh state-based daily Raj Express has launched two tabloids as supplements (or is it two supplements as tabloids?). R16 and Career 8 are the titles of these new publications, which will be distributed free with the main newspaper.
