The New Indian Express engagement report
@NewIndianXpress - 486K followers on X
Measured over 33 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 28, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1 interaction against 486K followers, an engagement rate of 0%. Measured over 33 original posts, its engagement rate beats 2% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 742 times each, and 0.135% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.153% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 3% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 33 posts sampled, 64% carry an image or video and 76% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 14 interactions, about 14x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #nepalfloods, #karnataka, #nepal.

Compared with accounts its own size
The New Indian Express's engagement rate beats 2% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 10% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

At under 0.001%, The New Indian Express sits below the 10th percentile of the 37,350 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.

Supreme Court asks the Centre to act on front-of-pack warning labels for junk food, amid growing concerns over obesity and the health impact of ultra-processed foods. The court linked food safety with the fundamental right to life under Article 21 and said clearer nutrition information is needed to help consumers make healthier choices. The observations come as India's ultra-processed food market continues to expand and childhood obesity rises. #SupremeCourt #Obesity #FoodSafety

- What is The New Indian Express's engagement rate on X?
- The New Indian Express (@NewIndianXpress) has an engagement rate of 0%, based on the median interactions across 33 original posts from the last 30 days against 486,039 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At under 0.001%, The New Indian Express sits below the 10th percentile of the 37,350 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @NewIndianXpress have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 2% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts), which puts it in the bottom 10% for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @NewIndianXpress post?
- Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.03 posts per day across the measured window.
