'''''Ei Samay Sangbadpatra''''' is a Bengali-language daily newspaper from [[The Times Group]]. It was launched as a [[broadsheet]] daily newspaper with a motive to enter into a head to head competition with ''[[Anandabazar Patrika]]''. It is owned and published by [[Bennett, Coleman & Co. Ltd.]] which is owned by the [[Sahu Jain family]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.exchange4media.mobi/Story.aspx?news_id=47543&section_id=1 |title=TOI gears up for Bengal mkt; ropes in Tailor |access-date=26 October 2012 |archive-url=https://archive.is/20130221014034/http://www.exchange4media.mobi/Story.aspx?news_id=47543&section_id=1 |archive-date=21 February 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>[http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/times-group-enters-bengali-newspaper-marketei-samay/489757/ Times group enters Bengali newspaper market with Ei Samay]</ref><ref>[http://www.indiatimes.com/national/times-group-to-launch-bengali-daily-ei-samay-on-oct-15_-43594.html Times Group to launch Bengali daily 'Ei Samay' on Oct 15 | National | www.indiatimes.com]</ref>
