Few words about the Chairman 

  
The Chairman of National News Service, Shri Kesar Singh Gupta was born in the year 1934 in village Patti Kalyana, Haryana. Born in a very ordinary family,  Mr. Gupta’s consistent struggle for achieving success has paid him rich dividends.  

A very soft-spoken, sociable, ever smiling and a strict disciplinarian,  shri K S Gupta has achieved a prominent and prestigious position in the field of Commercial Journalism. He has been a member of the executive body of All India Newspaper Editor’s Conference, Forum of Financial Writers and the Membry Press Club of India for the last many years. He is also the Patron of Uttranchal Yuva Patrakar Council. He has also held the post of General Secretary of the Federation of small & medium newspapers association for many years and had been awarded for his services to the association.  

A man having a never-ending zeal for innovation and creativity, Mr. Kesar Singh Gupta’s strong determination and his continuous quest for success have won him great admiration. Today, his well-knit family is being reckoned as one of the most reputed families of Delhi. Mr. K.S. Gupta is the proud father of one son and four daughters. Agewise they include Mrs. Rita Arya, Mrs. Veena Gupta, Mrs. Manju Goel, Mr. Rajesh Gupta and Mrs. Kavita Singhla, all well - placed and leading satisfying life. Mrs. Rita Arya, Mrs. Veena Gupta and Mr. Rajesh Gupta are associated with their father’s business and play a valuable role in the growth of NNS. 

The Journey Starts   
 With India entering into a new era, an era of free and Independent India, the life for Mr. Neki Ram Gupta was also set to take a new turn, when he came to Delhi and share the business in a  Naya Bazar shop. Along with his Business he also started giving commodity rates, reports etc. to newspapers, the Statesman being the first to start with.   During this time, his son Mr. Kesar Singh Gupta was appointed as a stringer in Sonepat and was entrusted with the task of supplying rates to the Navabharat Times - a Hindi daily. In the year 1952, Mr. Kesar Singh Gupta came to Delhi and started assisting his father with the help of his younger brother Sh. Kailash Chand Gupta. Those were the days when communication system was not that efficient, and for providing services he and his younger brother use  to go on bicycle to newspapers offices.  

After seeing that there was no trend of giving market rates or commercial news in newspapers, Mr. Gupta, in the year 1954 started a weekly newspaper, the Indian Market. This newspaper highlighted the market rates and reports of various mandis of different cities. However, the newspaper couldn’t survive for long due to financial problems. It was during this period that a printing press — the Indian Market Printing Press was started but it also met an end. However, the reporting still continued unstoppingly 
 

NNS Comes into being  

The continued struggle in the field of commercial journalism finally led to the origin of NNS in the year 1962. At that time it had only three-four newspapers as its subscribers. These were, the Tribune, Hind Samachar, the Statesman and Navabharat Times. However, soon after getting accredition, the subscriber base expanded considerably. Besides the services being provided in Hindi and English, the services were also rendered in Urdu and Punjabi languages.  

However, since the offing, NNS was never in profit and always faced a severe shortage of funds. To augment the financial position, a one page Hindi Daily Vyapar Bharati was started in 1972 on Cyclostyle Machine.  

During this period, Mr. K.S. Gupta travelled widely throughout India. He met various people associated with trade and commerce which helped him immensely in feeling the pulse of the market. During this time the family met with Seperation with his other brothers as a result, the NNS now became the asset of Mr. K.S. Gupta. Later on in the year 1983, he also started Vyapar Kesari a Hindi Business Daily as one of the publications of NNS.  

The Success Journey Continues  

With NNS under the able guidance of Mr. Kesar Singh Gupta, growth came naturally. Losses incurred were now some what managed. Communications done with the editors of various newspapers also met with success. The significance of Business page was well understood consequently, the services of NNS now began to be subscribed by many newspapers. Although news agencies such as UNI, PTI etc. also covered trade and commerce but the need-based information on various commodities definitely gave NNS a leading edge. Today, through its wide network NNS covers all the leading trading centres such as calcutta, Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi etc. and provides exclusive market information. 

Fresh ideas and innovations have always been a part of NNS and with time NNS has also tried to update its service. NNS, today, is the only News Service which focuses on commodity market. Although, restrained by meagre funds and no external support, NNS still is proudly marching ahead on the road of success.
