ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
NEVER TELL ANYONE THAT YOU ARE DOING SPECIAL, GOING ON A DIET, EXERCISING TAKING COURSE, OR QUITING SMOKING.THEY WILL ENCOURAGE YOU TO DEATH.”
“ LYNU JOHANSTON.

Now having successfully tried all of the above .I must say, I disagree with the quote, especially when it comes to prepare a project. When we are trying hard to get down to preparing a project like project on research methodology after a tiring day at college or waiting for the dreaded rejection slip that hangs over every students head like to a guillotine during the preparation of final project, at this time we need all the encouragement we can get. This encouragement is more effective than other that are given at another situation. It is very difficult to prepare a project almost when we are new for this experience without any help or guide it is not easy to achieve given target. It is my first time to give my report on research that is done by me. Here was very typical confusing work of it. The research work is no exception. It is difficult to thanks individually the entire person who patronized this work. The researcher had asked for favors borrowed ideas, expressions and facts from so many that it

would require one volume to give credit to all. So, the researcher wants to thanks all the persons related to this report.
I take the opportunity to express my deep gratitude to DNA to taking me as a su trainee and extending me their full support and co-operation towards the completion of this project. First time and fore most, I express my deep sense of gratitude to all DNA member. His helping nature and his enthusiasm has been source of constant impartation. His unhitching support during my work is very admirable. He is the true driving force behind this work throughout, constantly encouraging me to do my best and inspiring me to give higher. I also would like to give gratitude to Mr.Rajni Singh for help. I gratitude to Mr.Tejas who provide me this project and give guideline to complete the project. I am also very thankful to the entire faculty member, the whole college staff for providing me the necessary facilities and support, essential for brining out this work in a short time. Last but not the list, I am thankful to all the MARKET DEVELOPER, all the SALEMEN and THE RETAILERS who gave us their precious time and support to fulfill this task. Without their co-operation the study would not have seen the light of the day complete.

The latest English language newspaper in India hit the stands on July 30, 2005. DNA, short for Daily News and Analysis, promised to be a newspaper for the upscale, young Mumbai reader. Ushered in by a highly communicative advertising campaign, it promised to be THE emancipatory messiah newspaper I was

waiting for all my life. With huge investments, DNA unleashed a media war in Mumbai, jacking up journalist salaries and triggering crises in several newspapers. With the Times of India in its crosshairs, DNA hired some of the seniormost journalist and marketing hands in town. The Times machine went on overdrive much in advance, beefing up its supplements, rolling out Mumbai Mirror, dishing out several value additions and stuffing its journalists' pockets.

Daily News and Analysis (DNA) is a daily English newspaper published from Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Pune, Jaipur and Bengaluru in India. Launched on July 30, 2005, targeted at a young readership, DNA is India's fastest growing English newspaper[citation needed].

A high-profile advertisement campaign with the tagline ‘Speak up, it’s in your DNA’ preceded the birth of DNA, and was countered by advertisement campaigns by competitors.[1][2] The hype led to high expectations and at least for Dance with Shadows, the initial edition of the paper did not contain enough to stand out from other papers, such as big stories or high production values.[3] The newspaper competition around the time of the launch of DNA was fierce, with price cuts, hiring of staff from rival newspapers, and other competitive activity.[4][5] DNA is owned by Diligent Media Corporation, a joint venture between media industry majors – the D B Corp Ltd. (Dainik Bhaskar) and Essel Group.[5]

Editorial stand
The paper has a liberal outlook, and supports reformists in Mumbai and across the world. Through news, views, analysis and interactivity, DNA provides readers with a composite picture of India and the world. Its interactive platforms seek to bring the reader and surfer at the centre of its news activity.

DNA, Mumbai is the second most read English broadsheet in the city of Mumbai According to the National Readership Study (NRS 2006) findings released in August 2006, DNA’s readership in Mumbai city is 5,18,000.

Editions
Present Editions
DNA is currently published from Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, Ahmedabad, and Jaipur. DNA has stopped publishing from Surat.

Future Editions
The Major Metro Cities of India such as New Delhi, Hyderabad, Indore, Lucknow and Bhopal are also targeted for the futured edition of DNA News Paper

Let me confess, I expected nothing less than the best from DNA. So, my impression of the paper could be a result of the sky-high expectations I had from the paper. My apologies for the same.

At 6.00 AM on July 30, the day of DNA launch, I was at the news stand at Victoria Terminus in Bombay, hoping to be the first journalist in town to get his hands on DNA. There was Times, there was Express, there was HT, but DNA? "Aaya nahin hain bhai, Times le lo," advised the vendor. First day no show? I was disappointed. DNA is printed at Mhape in New Bombay, somewhere close to the HT printing press. If HT made it to the stands by 6.00, where was DNA? Or is it that this particular vendor got his copies late? I went home without my DNA

DNA YA!
DNA provides a supplement called "YA!young adults" in Bombay and parts of Pune. It is mainly targeted towards kids from as young as 4 years to 18, but it is also read by many parents and people who are almost 50 years old. It is published by editor Anuradha Sengupta and publishes on every Sunday. It gives lots of information about happenings around Bombay, camps, bookshops, international worries such as global warming,contests, games and puzzles, comics, jokes, recipes, children's worries like bullying and heavy homework etc,did-you-knows, and children's contributions such as poems,essays,articles on their life, letters to the editor, drawings etc. The editor also publishes a letter of her own thoughts towards the children who have written to her.

Many newspapers and magazines, when they roll off the presses for the first time, make a splash with some "launch stories". The idea is to hit the ground running, to grab maximum eyeballs, and to increase word-of-mouth publicity. HT hit the stands in Mumbai with the Salman tapes scoop (... and they continued on this issue of national importance for the better part of a week. Let there be light on Salman's eccentric love life! -Editor). When Outlook magazine took off in 1996, they did so with a cover story on the Aazadi aspirations of Kashmiris. Such shocking & investigative launch stories get the product immediately noticed, and guarantee instant sales besides ensuring brand recall. Whether we like the concept of such launch stories or not, the fact remains that they serve a critical purpose.

The first edition of DNA does not have any exciting reports to hold the reader, and keep him coming back for more. The front page stories are, predictably, on the Mumbai rains, a single column story on Dawood in Dubai and an anchor story on the Marine Drive rape victim suing the government for Rs 15 lakh. I had come to think that anchor stories are usually featurish, off-beat, human interest stuff. Rape victim's trauma in anchor slot?

PRICE

Daily News and Analysis (DNA), the newspaper owned by Diligent Media, has launched its Pune edition. The Pune edition comes on the heels of the launch of the newspaper?s Ahmedabad edition. The cover price for the newspaper in Pune will be Rs 2. The initial print run is close to 76,000 copies. Abhay Vaidya, chief of bureau of The Times of India in the city, has been roped in as resident editor.

COMPITITOR

The Times of India (TOI) and The Indian Express (IE) have been available in Pune for more than a decade now. As per the ABC figures for January-June 2007, TOI has a circulation of 2,09,586 in the city. The circulation figures for IE were not available. Sumit Rohatgi, chief manager, marketing, DNA, says the newspaper will be positioned along the same lines as in Mumbai and is targeted at young readers. The Mumbai paper?s positioning line, „Read the World?, will also be used in Pune. Commenting on the competition, KU Rao, chief executive officer, DNA, says, “Although TOI and IE have been in Pune for quite some time, it will not affect the market for DNA at all. The Pune market has been predominantly ruled by Marathi publications and the readership of English dailies continues to remain niche. The launch of DNA will grow the market vastly and provide wider options for the existing readers.”

The Pune edition is going to be custom designed keeping local tastes in mind. The paper will be initially printed and published from Mumbai, while a state of the art printing press gets constructed in Pune. The press is expected to be functional by the end of May. However, the Pune editorial team is fully functional.

MANAGEMENT DEX
Rao adds, “The launch of DNA?s Pune edition is in line with the company?s strategy to become the dominant player in Western India. The overall target is to make DNA a Rs 1000 crore company by 2011 and the Pune edition should be able to provide 10 per cent of that number.” The current campaign is just to introduce the DNA brand and familiarise it among readers through outdoor advertising, print and other marketing initiatives. If required, the company might design a specific campaign for Pune in the future when the brand becomes known to readers. The „Start a Conversation? campaign was used specifically in Mumbai last year to promote the brand?s agenda.

A high-profile advertisement campaign with the tagline „Speak up, it?s in your DNA? preceded the birth of DNA, and was countered by advertisement campaigns by competitors. The hype led to high expectations and at least for Dance with Shadows, the initial edition of the paper did not contain enough to stand out from other papers, such as big stories or high production values. The newspaper competition around the time of the launch of DNA was fierce, with price cuts, hiring of staff from rival newspapers, and other competitive activity.

The Daily News and Analysis, which is owned by the Zee network, is geared to launch its full-fledged Pune edition tomorrow. According to K.U. Rao, CEO of DNA, the teams consisting of 70 staff members, are in place for all departments in Pune. “We are already the No. 2 players in revenue leadership in Mumbai and we want revenue leadership in Pune in the next two years,” he said and added that no newspaper in India has grown faster than DNA. Rao also said that DNA would launch its own printing press in Pune by April or May. Until then, the Pune edition would be printed in Mumbai. The paper, however, did see the loss of some senior managers: Gautam Adhikari (editor) and Suresh Balakrishnan (CMO), who were with the paper since the Mumbai launch.

Did this loss create any impact? “The attrition rate in DNA has been far lower than any other paper. Worker movements happen in every company, and that is not going to stop the company from operating,” Rao said. Not to be left behind is Bennett Coleman, the company that publishes the Times of India group of newspaper. The company is also set to launch Pune Mirror shortly on the lines of the popular Mumbai Mirror. According to media industry sources, the company had already hired 40 editorial staff from a rival newspaper. The publication of Pune Mirror is likely to begin in February or earlier.
