Mumbai-based print and digital newspaper with multiformat media presence
Mid-Day is a 45-year-old Mumbai newspaper under Jagran Prakashan Ltd, operating across print, digital, and out-of-home channels. The tech stack reflects a hybrid media operation: Adobe Creative Suite and video tools (Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro) for content production, paired with AWS/Azure cloud infrastructure and Google Analytics for digital reach. Hiring remains sales-heavy (circulation and corporate orders) but skews junior, signaling either cost-discipline or transition challenges as the company navigates declining print economics and advertiser shift toward programmatic.
Notable leadership hires: Head Circulation
Mid-Day publishes a daily newspaper in Mumbai with the largest print circulation in the metro, alongside digital editions and regional variants (Gujarati and Urdu). The publication competes in local news, lifestyle, career guidance, and entertainment coverage. Distribution spans print, digital (midday.com reporting 25+ million page views monthly), and out-of-home advertising placements. Revenue comes from circulation, print advertising, branded content, and corporate sponsorships (cricket leagues, workplace promotions). Operations span content production, circulation logistics, advertiser sales, and vendor management across distributors and retail agents.
Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, Canva, Photoshop for content creation; AWS, Azure, GCP for cloud infrastructure; Google Analytics 4 and Ad Manager for digital measurement; SQL Server and .NET for backend systems.
