Dainik Bhaskar is a Hindi-language daily newspaper in India, owned by DB Corp Ltd. (the Dainik Bhaskar Group), and one of the country's largest-circulation newspapers.
The paper's origins trace to Subah Savere, launched in Bhopal, and Good Morning India, launched in Gwalior; the two combined as Bhaskar Samachar before the Dainik Bhaskar name was adopted in 1958. By 1995, Dainik Bhaskar had become the leading newspaper in Madhya Pradesh, and it subsequently expanded into Rajasthan (Jaipur, 1996), Punjab and Chandigarh (2000s), Jharkhand (2010), and Bihar (2014), typically entering new markets through extensive household surveys before launch.
DB Corp publishes 65 editions of its newspapers in Hindi, Marathi, and Gujarati across roughly a dozen Indian states, including sister titles Divya Bhaskar (Gujarati) and Dainik Divya Marathi.
Dainik Bhaskar is available through print circulation and online, with estimated daily circulation in the millions of copies.
