Why Lost & Found ads

If you have lost or misplaced important documents or any other paper such as Income Tax certificate, property-related documents, driving licence, passport, PAN card, school/college certificates, bank-related any other certificates. 

Find your lost documents just by publishing an advertisement in the lost & found section of the newspaper When you book lost & found ads in any newspaper consider some factors always like what to write in lost & Found ads & where to publish this ad.

When certain kinds of possessions are lost, recovering them means recovery of an asset for you. But to do so, certain statutory requirements have to be met. One of these is an advertisement in a newspaper’s “lost and found” columns.  

That also should be in a newspaper of the locality in which the material was lost. (A Delhi resident, for instance, should advertise in a Mumbai newspaper if the incident took place on a trip to that city, because that is the most likely place in which his lost matter can be found.) 

You have the choice of publishing it in either the Classified Text or Classified Display Format depending on your advertising budget. Abbreviations of certain words can be used in a Lost & Found advertisement to reduce your total cost on that classified advertisement.

On losing a variety of documents – i.e. income tax certificate, VAT-related documents, Form 38 of sales tax, property-related documents (sale deed, registry, mutation etc.), driving licence, passport, PAN card, school/college certificates, bank-related documents including fixed deposit certificate, share certificates, etc. – an advertisement in a leading national newspaper is a statutory requirement. In certain cases, you will have to produce an affidavit or FIR to the newspaper before placing your Lost & Found advertisement.
