Common questions

Booking a matrimonial ad — answered

Matrimonial classifieds are charged <strong>per line or per word</strong>, not as a flat price per ad — so the total depends on the paper, how long your matter is, and how many editions you take. Rates start at <strong>₹35 a line</strong>. Budget regional dailies come in a few hundred rupees; large English and Bengali papers run into several thousand. GST of 5% is added. Pick your paper above and the exact rate appears — you never have to share your matter to see a price.
Because two ads in the same paper can cost very differently. A four-line ad in one city edition and a nine-line ad across every edition are priced from the same rate card but land far apart. That is also why shortening the matter genuinely reduces the cost — we will tell you where it can be trimmed without losing what matters.
Yes. Sunday packages such as 2+2, multi-insertion discounts when you book several weeks together, and republish offers for returning customers. Multi-edition combos are usually far cheaper than booking each edition separately — if you are covering a whole region, ask before you pay.
Yes, free. Send the biodata in any language — a photo of a handwritten note is fine — and our team writes the matrimonial wording for you and translates it into the paper's language: Bengali, Punjabi, Hindi, Malayalam, Gujarati, Tamil and more. You approve the final wording before anything is booked.
Generally no — most newspapers do not allow the candidate's name in a matrimonial classified. This is a publication rule, and it works in your favour: the ad describes the match without identifying your child publicly. Responses come to the phone number you give, so your family stays in control of who learns what, and when.
First <strong>Wanted Bride</strong> or <strong>Wanted Groom</strong>, then by religion and caste — or <em>caste no bar</em> — with separate headings for NRI, divorcee and re-marriage, and professional columns such as doctors. This is the most important choice on the page: the heading decides who reads your ad, and filing under the wrong side is what causes calls from the wrong direction. Tell us the profile and we place it correctly.
Matrimonial classifieds are mostly a <strong>Sunday</strong> feature, and the cut-off for that Sunday is usually <strong>Friday evening</strong> — some papers close earlier. Book before the cut-off and it appears that Sunday; miss it and the ad moves to the following week. You can also book several Sundays at once, which most families do.
An edition covers <strong>specific districts, not a whole state</strong> — a Chandigarh edition, for example, may not include Panchkula and Mohali. Before you pay we show you exactly which districts your edition reaches, and where a combo package covering the wider region works out cheaper than a single edition.
We book <strong>131 newspapers</strong> through one window — The Tribune, Ajit, Jagbani and Punjab Kesari in the north; Anandabazar Patrika and Bartaman in Bengal; Malayala Manorama and Mathrubhumi in Kerala; Times of India, Dainik Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar, Rajasthan Patrika, Gujarat Samachar and more. Tell us the paper and the city.
UPI, GPay, PhonePe, cards and net-banking through an official secure payment link, with a GST invoice in a company name if you need one. Customers paying from outside India can book too. You get SMS and email confirmation within a minute of paying.
Yes. releaseMyAd is an <strong>INS-accredited</strong> newspaper booking platform, running since 2009, with physical offices and over three lakh customers. Every booking carries a lowest-price guarantee and a full refund if the ad does not run. If you would rather speak to someone before paying, request a callback.
You get an order confirmation immediately and can track the booking status. After the ad runs you can <strong>view it in that newspaper's e-paper</strong> for the published date and edition, or buy a printed copy from a local newsstand. If anything is wrong with how it appeared, our team takes it up with the paper.
Beyond plain classified text you can add bold, colour, a box or border, or a highlight, and classified display lets you set a custom font, colour and border so the ad stands apart on a crowded page. Matrimonial ads do not carry a photograph. Each upgrade carries a surcharge, quoted before you pay.
Backgrounder · Matrimonial classified ads What you're booking, and how it works
Matrimonial classified ads

Matrimonial classified ads,
at a glance.

How matrimonial advertising works across India's newspapers — what it costs, which paper to pick for your community, and how releaseMyAd drafts, translates and books it for you.

A newspaper matrimonial ad reaches a different set of people than any app can. It is read by the parents, grandparents and wider family who actually evaluate and approve a match — the people a portal, built to connect two individuals, never puts your alliance in front of. And it reaches them in the language they read, in the regional paper their community trusts.

It also reaches people who are serious. A family answering a matrimonial column is marriage-minded, not casually browsing — which is why the responses tend to be genuine. The only hard part was ever the booking: a phone call to an agent, a faxed proof, a guessed rate. releaseMyAd is the first and largest platform to make it simple — see every paper's exact per-line rate without sharing your matter, choose your column, community heading and edition, and have the wording drafted and translated for you, free, before it runs in the coming Sunday edition.
