Mint is the business daily brought out by HT Media in collaboration with the Wall Street Journal. Mint was launched on Feb 1, 2007 with the objective of delivering 'clarity in business'. Mint was very well received by the discerning business readers and within a short period of its launch it grew to become the No. 2 business daily in key cities of Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. Mint is currently available in Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Chennai, Pune and Chandigarh as well.
Mint is edited by Sukumar Ranganathan. He leads a bright and committed team of editors and journalists who have diverse experience gained through working in reputed publications across the globe.
Mint has an integrated online offering in Livemint.com - a business news website that covers business news in India as well as across the world.
Mint has already won awards and accolades for its journalism and design despite the short span of its existence. Priyanka P. Narain won the CNN Young Journalist Award for the series on the Sethusamudram project. Amit Varma won the Bastiat Prize for Journalism in 2007 for his column "Thinking it Through".
Mint has also won awards for its design. It won the IFRA Gold Award for the City in Sixty series - a series about large metropolitan cities in India on the occasion of the sixtieth anniversary of India's independence. It also won the Silver Award in the Best Newspaper Design category.
With over a million readers and a profile unmatched in the category, the company stands vindicated in its belief that there is a better way of delivering business news - one that is credible, engaging and involved with issues that matter.
