Posted by In spite of the digital news content eruption, most of the Indians still prefer to read the morning newspaper while sipping morning coffee or tea. Close to 100 million newspapers from thousands of publications are distributed daily in India. Nearly 15,000 crores worth of billing happens annually, which are manual in nature and collected in cash. Although some subscribers have shifted to digital payments, but this segment remains unorganized and inefficient.
Right from publisher to dealer/distributor to vendors for final distribution, the whole system works seamlessly every day to deliver papers to doorsteps. Technology intervention is helping to make it efficient and particularly with automated billing and collection process for vendors. Gone are those days, where newspaper vendors would sit for 2-3 days preparing manual bill books trying to endlessly remember all changes and payment updates.
