This page is currently being merged. After a discussion, consensus to merge this page with List of newspapers in India by readership was found. You can help implement the merge by following the instructions at Help:Merging and the resolution on the discussion. Process started in September 2021.

This is a list of the top newspapers in India by circulation. These figures include both print and digital subscriptions, are compiled by the Audit Bureau of Circulations. The figures include normal print editions, branded print editions (e.g., regional editions or editions tailored for commuters), and digital subscriptions (e.g., for tablet computers or restricted-access).

Circulation figures try to estimate the number of copies sold, while readership figures are usually higher as they tend to estimate the number of people who actually read the newspaper. Typically, readership tends to be 2.5 times circulation, though this may be higher or lower depending on individual cases.^[1][2]
