Founded by the late Sri Si. Pa. Aditanar, Daily Thanthi had its first edition from Madurai in 1942. Thanks to the visionary zeal of the Founder, the publication started spreading its reach to the four corners of Tamil Nadu and the neighbouring states of Pondicherry and Karnataka.

Under the dynamic and inspiring leadership of Dr. B.Sivanthi Adityan,
Daily Thanthi grew further and spread its wings.

Daily Thanthi became the largest circulated Tamil daily within a few years and has not looked back since. For over four decades now, it is reigning supreme as the undisputed leader among Tamil dailies. It has today 14 editions.

Daily Thanthi is the highest circulated Tamil daily in Bangalore & Pondicherry, apart from being the largest circulated daily in Tamil Nadu.

Daily Thanthi's editorial policy is neutral. The publication does not support any one political party or government. The language is simple and easily understandable.
