From 1996, Dainik Bhaskar started establishing themselves as a customer centric organisation. Publishing the newspaper is entirely based on Audience Taste and Requirements. Bridging the gap between the Entrepreneur and the customer. Difference in the perception could be very subtle but it can change the way the brand is perceived. Effective Pricing Policy Flexibility is the key The group has always been well planned but also open for a last minute changed. Example: In Ahmedabad, the group was about to come up with two supplements for Divya Bhaskar because it is a city of 5 million readers ....

When the newspaper began its circulation in Haryana, it was still being published from Chandigarh but people from Haryana resented.
