Advertisingin Nashik
Four private FM stations, a Marathi daily and a city office that permits every board shape a Nashik media plan. PromotEdge books each medium only after you approve the rate, then counts the calls it brought.

Press, radio and boards,each tested before the next.
An advertising agency in Nashik earns its fee by tying each rupee of media to one kind of buyer, then proving which rupee made the phone ring. PromotEdge plans and books Marathi and English press, FM and Akashvani radio, and permitted outdoor sites for Nashik's hotels, traders, makers and wineries, and counts the calls from each.
Mainline advertising means paid space in papers, on radio and on boards. This page covers only what is different about Nashik. Our advertising service page shows how we plan it anywhere, and the Nashik overview covers the rest of the city.
Our servicing team is based in cities across India, and most of the work runs online, in hybrid mode. We speak every day, and we visit Nashik at least once every three months. When a job needs it, a team member works from your site.

Marathi and English press ads
Daily Sakal for Marathi readers and The Times of India for English ones. Our language partners write the Marathi ad in Marathi from the start, and our team checks it.
02FM and Akashvani spots
Which of the four private stations, whether to add Akashvani, and which hours. Each spot is timed to its length, and each carries its own phone number.
03Boards on permitted sites
Only sites whose owner can show the city's permission. Boards are made and mounted through PEXORA, a joint venture of PromotEdge and Prodigy, with partner agencies where a job needs them.
04A plan for the Kumbh year
The 2027 Simhastha Kumbh changes roads and crowds. We plan what can start now, and hold back the booking that depends on dates nobody has published.
05Google ads that catch the search
A paper ad or a radio spot makes people curious, so they search for you. A Google search ad puts your name and number in front of them at that moment.
06Proof and a count by medium
Rates in writing before you agree. After release: a copy of each ad, station logs and dated photos of each board. What can't be measured can't be achieved.
Five facts that shape a Nashik media plan.
Each comes from a public source, checked on 4 October 2026. Two are here, and three more are in the fold below.
1. Radio has few voices, so a test is quick. The government's list of 30 March 2026 shows four private FM stations in Nashik, at 93.5, 95.0, 98.3 and 104.2 MHz. Akashvani's local station is at 101.4 MHz. With five frequencies, a month on two of them soon shows which one your buyers hear.
2. A board needs the city's permission. The Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC) has an Advertisement and Licence department. It permits sky signs and hoardings that stay long, temporary boards and greeting boards. It also auctions NMC-owned open spaces. So the permit comes before the site is paid for.
The other three facts: the audited papers, the 2027 Kumbh and its road work, and the visitors who arrive by air.
The Nashik market for advertising
3. Two audited papers, one in each language. The Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC), which checks newspaper sales, lists Daily Sakal in Marathi and The Times of India in English as Nashik editions. Other papers may print here as well, because the list shows members only. The district website says Marathi is the language spoken here, so a Marathi paper is often the first test. Newspaper advertising works best with one clear offer and a phone number made for that paper.
4. The 2027 Kumbh will change the roads. Nashik is one of four places that hold the Kumbh Mela, the big river-bathing gathering, every 12 years. Here it is called the Simhastha Kumbh. NMC says the last one was in 2015-16. The next is listed for 2027. We found no official dates, bathing days or crowd numbers, so we give none. NMC's works page lists 39 projects. They include road work on 27 routes, 4 bridge or ramp projects, 2 hospital facilities and 1 facility for the akhadas, the two main groups of sadhus. It shows no date. A board on a road that is dug up helps nobody, so we confirm the route before we book the site.
5. Visitors arrive by air as well. The Airports Authority of India counted 4,23,634 passengers at Nashik (HAL Ozar) airport in 2025-26 (April to March), up 24.2% from 3,41,112 the year before. A hotel, a taxi service or a restaurant may want its message on the roads and in the papers that arriving guests meet first. Our travel and tourism page shows how those buyers decide.
What is on offer,and what needs care.
Nashik has five radio frequencies, one Marathi daily and one English daily on the audited list. The city office permits boards, and its fee table is not public. The next Kumbh is in 2027, with road work planned on 27 routes.

| Item | What the public record says | How we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Private FM | Four stations at 93.5, 95.0, 98.3 and 104.2 MHz. Nashik is category C on the ministry's list of 30 March 2026. | Pick by listener and hour, then compare each station's written rate. |
| Akashvani | Local Radio Station Nasik, 101.4 MHz. The government's card is dated 1 June 2017 and prices by programme type. | A 2017 card is only a guide. We ask the station for its current rate before any booking. |
| Dailies | Daily Sakal (Marathi) and The Times of India (English) are Audit Bureau of Circulations members with a Nashik edition. | The list shows members only. We ask every paper for its own reach figures. |
| Who permits boards | NMC's Advertisement and Licence department is headed by a Deputy Commissioner. It also gives lodging licences. | One office for most outdoor questions. We write to it before a site is booked. |
| Online permit services | NMC's civic-services portal lists four: temporary advertisement permission, "NMC Board 10-10 advt", long-term advertisement permission and long-term renewal. The pages show no fee table or document list without a login. | We quote no board fee because none is public. We prepare the form and track renewal dates. |
| Simhastha Kumbh, 2027 | Held every 12 years. NMC says the last was in 2015-16. The next is listed for 2027 (Wikipedia). NMC's works page lists 39 projects, with road work on 27 routes, and shows no date. | No official dates or crowd numbers were found, so none is used. We book boards on a route only when its work is clear. |
| Where crowds gather | The district's tourism page lists Ramkund (2 km from the central bus station), Panchavati and Someshwar temple (8 km, Gangapur road). Trimbakeshwar is about 25 to 30 km away, as the two official pages differ. | We study foot and road traffic at a site before we suggest it. |
| Air arrivals | Nashik (HAL Ozar) airport: 4,23,634 passengers in 2025-26, up 24.2% from 3,41,112 (Airports Authority of India). | More visitors by air makes hotel and taxi ads on the way into town worth a test. |
| Language | The district website says Marathi is the language spoken in the district. | First drafts of press, radio and board messages are written in Marathi. |

From first callto counted calls.
The full steps are in the fold below.
- 01
Start with the buyer
Who buys from you, where they live or stay, which language they read, and your busiest month.
- 02
Choose the media
Which paper, which stations and hours, and outdoor only on permitted sites along your buyers' routes.
Tell us what’s not working. We’ll send you an honest one-page growth plan, free.
Steps 3 to 6: clearing each board, writing and booking, releasing with proof, and counting the calls.
How the work runs in Nashik
- Clear each site For every board we ask NMC's Advertisement and Licence department which of its services applies, prepare the form and note the renewal date. No fee table is public, so we quote none.
- Write, then book One idea, written fresh in Marathi and English by our language partners, and sized for each paper, spot and board. We believe in process. Good results should repeat, not happen by luck. Nothing is booked before your yes.
- Release with proof You get a copy of each ad, the station's log and dated photos of each board, so you can see what ran and when.
- Count what came back Each medium gets its own phone number, QR code or offer code. Your monthly report shows the cost per call from each, and we move money to what worked.
What changes the cost of advertising in Nashik.
We don't publish a price list. After a first call we write the scope, then quote against it. Space, airtime, permits, printing and mounting are billed at the owner's or supplier's price, shown before you approve.
What affects the cost
- Language: Marathi, English or both; each adds a script and often a paper
- Media: which paper and ad size, how many of the five radio frequencies, and how many spots
- Outdoor: each board needs the city's permission, and some sites may not be available
- Timing: the 2027 Kumbh year is likely to be crowded, so ask early
How we quote
- A video call about your buyers and your last quarter's enquiries
- A written media plan naming each paper, station and site, with reasons
- The city's permission checked for each board before it enters the quote
- A written quote within 2 working days of the first call, line by line, which you can approve, trim or turn down
What you get in the quote
- Each paper, edition, ad size, language and date
- Each station, time band, spot length and spot count
- Each board, its size, months and permission on file
How it is billed
| Way of working | When it fits |
|---|---|
| Season burst | One push, such as a sale month or a launch; timeline confirmed in the quote |
| Monthly retainer | Releases through the year with a monthly count of calls by medium; minimum 3 months, 30 days' notice to stop |
Two more things that move your quote, and a plain word on results.
What else changes the cost in Nashik
The number of boards. Each board needs its own permission and its own renewal date, so ten boards mean ten files to keep.
How involved you are. We can't do magic alone. The more involved you are, the faster you see results. Tell us your busiest month and your last quarter's enquiries, and the first plan gets sharper.

Straight answers.

Our servicing team is based in cities across India, and most of the work runs online, in hybrid mode. We speak every day and share one report a month. We come to Nashik at least once every three months, and for site checks or a launch when needed. A team member can also work from your site.
-
Ask each agency for a real monthly report with the client's name hidden. Ask who writes the Marathi copy, who applies to NMC for your board, and who owns the booking. Ask what it would not buy with your budget. Pick the plainest answers, ours included.
-
NMC's Advertisement and Licence department permits long-term boards and temporary ones, and its portal lists four online services. The pages we read show no fee table without a login, so we quote no fee. We prepare the form and track renewal dates. This is general guidance, not legal advice.
-
Each private station sets its own rate, so ask for it in writing. Akashvani's local station, at 101.4 MHz, publishes a government rate card dated 1 June 2017. Treat that card as a guide, and ask the station for today's rate before you book.
-
Not yet. We found no official dates, and NMC's works page lists road work on 27 routes with no date, so some roads may change. Start what needs no dates now: the permit form, the Marathi message and your Google listing. Book the site once the routes are clear.
-
Radio and press can bring calls on the days they run, if the message is clear and the phone number is made for that medium. Boards work slowly, by being seen again and again. We confirm the timeline in the quote. Each month you see the calls by medium, so you keep what works.
