2014-2015 Advertising Tariff

Lead Advertiser Sharing Scheme


The cost of advertisement, in Karachi edition only, is equivalent to 55% of the Nationwide rate on weekdays, and
65% of the Nationwide rate on Sundays. The cost of an advertisement in either Lahore or Islamabad edition only
is equivalent to 30% of the Nationwide rate each. To place an ad in one station where only Nationwide
advertising is accepted, Lead Advertisers or their advertising agencies must secure alternate
advertisers/partners to advertise in the editions where they are not placing their advertisement.
If Lead Advertisers or their advertising agencies fail to find an advertiser for either the Lahore or Islamabad
editions, their advertisements will run nationally in all three editions. In this case, Lead Advertisers or their
advertising agencies will be billed at the full Nationwide rate. If however, the advertisement is scheduled to
appear in a position in which Local Advertising is accepted, the Lead Advertisers or their advertising agencies
may opt for one edition only at the respective local rate, subject to the Terms and Conditions governing local
rate advertising.
For positions in which there is no Local Rate, the Lead Advertiser must initiate the Release Order, which can be
for any of the three editions. It is then the Lead Advertisers responsibility to ensure that the other slots in the
LASS scheme are sold and charged in accordance with the DAWN tariff. The responsibility of the Lead Advertiser
ends when payment is made to DAWN. The Lead Advertiser is responsible for the full amount payable, if any of
the available slots are not sold.
Terms and Conditions for LASS
1) Once a booking is made, cancellations are not permitted. In the event of a cancellation, the booking
agency/advertiser will be charged the full amount of the advertisement with the applicable premium.
2) Bookings will only be made with a Release Order stating the name of the client and the dates of
insertion. Release Orders will be irrevocable.
3) The Scheme is open to advertisements published on national holidays (March 23, December 25, August
14, Ashura etc.)
4) The Scheme is open only to the clients paying commercial rates and is not applicable to advertisements
billed at government commercial and pure government rates.
5) Pure government advertisements, billed at the regular rates applicable to such advertisements, can be
booked on the Front Page under the below two conditions:
Page Specific Release Orders must have a floating booking period of one week; i.e. the specific date
of insertion will not be given on the Release Order. Instead, the first day of the week will be marked
on the Release Order and the advertisement will be placed on the Front Page on the first available
date. If the advertisement cannot be published by the seventh weekday, the Release Order will
become date specific and will follow the rules of Date Specific Release Orders described below.
Date Specific Release Order If a pure government advertisement booking is received for the Front
Page against a date specific Release Order and the Front Page is not available on the specified date,
the advertisement will automatically be shifted to the Back Page, failing which, it will be shifted to a
non-premium color page. This will be specifically stated in the Release Order.
6) Government commercial advertisements booked at government commercial Front Page rates will not be
removed from the Front Page, even if a booking for a private advertisement has been received for the
same date.
