ONLINE MAGAZINE…YOUR HELP NEEDED.

Dear Rodinhooders

I’m Saravana Kumar from Coimbatore, Tamilnadu. I was editing and publishing a local news magazine a couple of years back (links to pages here: https://issuu.com/mycitystar/docs/city_star_-_feb). Due to some financial constraints, I had to stop the publication. Now, I’m planning to reactivate it in an online version.

This will be a portal that carries stories about people in/belong to Coimbatore (since it is a city based neighbourhood magazine). Now, my question is…is there any licensing procedure to start such a portal? I had earlier registered my news magazine with the Registrar of Newspapers in India (RNI), passing through all the formalities. Will this online version need any such registration? If yes, which is the body that does it?

Kindly throw some light on this, dear friends.

Thanks a lot, in advance.
