By the beginning of fiscal year 2023 the cost of newsprint, a key raw material in printing newspapers, soared to 1000 U.S. dollars per ton in India. This was an increase of more than 50 percent over a mere two-year span in keeping with the rising trend in newsprint prices in the country. The continued unstable rise of newsprint costs was detrimental to the newspaper industry leading to a decline in the printing of newspapers during the same period.
