HT is also the only major paper to have grown in Readership (AIR) in Delhi over the past two years and the latest figures show readership increases in the 20-29 age group as well as the more discerning 40+ group.

Reader-focused editorial campaigns and other initiatives in this period targeted at people between the ages of 20 and 29 — including the relaunch of HT City and HT Horizons, as well as campaigns such as I Love Delhi and the Delhi Shopping Carnival — have resulted in HT’s readership in that segment growing by 30,000 readers.

HT’s growth in the 40+ age group ensures that the paper continues to lead this segment by more than 50,000 over the nearest competitor.
