History
[edit]The magazine began publication in 1985 in the UK under the name For Him Magazine and changed its title to FHM in 1994 when Emap Consumer Media bought the magazine. However, the full For Him Magazine continued to be printed on the spine of each issue.
FHM was published by NGPL from its inaugural issue up to the July 2010 issue. From August 2010 to March 2015, a publishing company out off Delhi published FHM, and thereafter, TCG Media took charge of FHM in India. Bauer Media shut down FHM & Zoo in UK in early 2016 along with some major license editions in a few countries. TCG Media Limited decided to continue publishing FHM India with consent from Bauer Media. TCG Media Limited is headquartered in New Delhi and also has offices in Ahmedabad, Mumbai and Bengaluru.[9]
The magazine was launched with the October 2007 issue with Ujjwala Raut - India's most successful overseas supermodel [3] on the cover.
