NIC 639004 - News/Press clipping services

Digital and media activities split by what the business actually delivers: published content, film or broadcasting output, telecom connectivity, software development, IT consulting, hosting or data processing.

Follow the revenue model. A software developer, hosting provider, telecom operator and content publisher can all use different NIC codes even if they operate online. Compare 639001 Operation of websites that use a search engine to generate and maintain extensive databases of Internet addresses and content in an easily searchable format, 639002 Operation of other websites that act as portals to the Internet, such as media sites providing periodically updated content, 639003 Telephone-based information services such as directory assistance, customer support helplines, telebanking and similar services.

Check the parent hierarchy, compare 639001 Operation of websites that use a search engine to generate and maintain extensive databases of Internet addresses and content in an easily searchable format, 639002 Operation of other websites that act as portals to the Internet, such as media sites providing periodically updated content, 639003 Telephone-based information services such as directory assistance, customer support helplines, telebanking and similar services, and confirm that the official title matches the main revenue activity. For regulated or filing-critical decisions, verify the source row in the MoSPI dataset.

A wrong code can cause mismatched business descriptions, follow-up questions or later compliance cleanup. It is better to compare nearby codes before filing than to correct a weak classification later.

Use the legacy converter only as a migration aid. Old NIC 2008 matches can suggest where to look, but NIC 2025 should remain the primary reference for new code selection.
