"The Hindu, started in 1878 as a weekly, became a daily in 1889 and from then on has been steadily growing. The Hindu's independent editorial stand and its reliable and balanced presentation of the news have over the years, won for it the serious attention and regard of the people who matter in India and abroad. The Hindu has a wide network of full-time and part-time correspondents and photographers across India. The Hindu is known for its strong reportage from the national capital as well as from the southern States and cities. The Hindu has a major presence online: it was the first Indian newspaper to start an Internet edition, in 1995. The Hindu's digital versions, including the website, app, and e-paper, cater to an ever growing audience. Apart from the morning English daily, The Hindu Group, owned by Kasturi and Sons Limited, publishes the business newspaper The Hindu BusinessLine, a general interest fortnightly, Frontline, and a sports weekly, Sportstar. The Hindu is printed in 19 centres across the country. Tailored in parts to suit different circulation regions for unique news and advertisement content, it has more than 40 different versions produced each day.

"The Times of India, also known by its abbreviation TOI, is an Indian English-language daily newspaper and digital news media owned and managed by The Times Group. It is the third-largest newspaper in India by circulation and largest selling English-language daily in the world. It is the oldest English-language newspaper in India, and the second-oldest Indian newspaper still in circulation, with its first edition published in 1838. It is nicknamed as ""The Old Lady of Bori Bunder"", and is an Indian ""newspaper of record"". Near the beginning of the 20th century, Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of India, called TOI ""the leading paper in Asia"". In 1991, the BBC ranked TOI among the world's six best newspapers. It is owned and published by Bennett, Coleman & Co. Ltd. (B.C.C.L.), which is owned by the Sahu Jain family. In the Brand Trust Report India study 2019, TOI was rated as the most trusted English newspaper in India.[16] Reuters rated TOI as India's most trusted media news brand in a survey. In recent decades, the newspaper has been criticised for establishing in the Indian news industry the practice of accepting payments from persons and entities in exchange for positive coverage."
