The Telegraph won the coveted SNAP certificate in 2003 for printing excellence. Soon after, both The Telegraph and Anandabazar Patrika won the SNAP certificate in the year 2005. The mission of the Specifications for Newsprint Advertising Production (SNAP) committee is to develop and communicate specifications to improve coldset reproduction quality. These specifications are for advertisers, agencies and publishers, customers as well as for prepress, materials, newspapers and printers to help make the coldset industry competitive in world markets.

ABP became the first non-US company to win two top awards, SNAP and IFRA, for printing excellence.

The Telegraph in Schools was awarded the prestigious World Young Reader Prize by the World Association of Newspapers (WAN) in 2004.

WAN awards the World Young Reader Prize annually to any newspaper or newspapers that devise the most innovative educational projects or activity that helps develop young readership.

The Telegraph was the first Indian newspaper to be awarded membership to the prestigious IFRA - International Newspaper Colour Quality Club (INCQC) for excellence in colour printing for the year 2004-2006. ABP achieved the feat again by being awarded membership for 2006-2008 for both Anandabazar Patrika and The Telegraph.
