Campaigns we have run for brands like Gulf Oil Lubricants
A campaign we planned, booked and photographed for another advertiser in Fuel / Petroleum Products, run by the same team and the same process you would work with.
Cricket sponsorship taken onto the streets of Ahmedabad
A team sponsorship is bought on television and then usually stops there. This took it outside: large-format hoardings and unipoles across Ahmedabad carried the official solar energy partner status for the Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians, on arterial routes and junctions during the season. The sponsorship supplies the credibility, and the outdoor puts it in front of the same city that watches the team.
Street-level outdoor makes a sponsorship local, which television alone does not. Running it in the team’s home city during the season means the audience meets the partnership on match day and on the drive to work.
Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Renewable energy advertising in India
Print is the sector’s leading medium, taking 49.7% of ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025. Livguard Energy Technologies leads on 57.6% of that spend, 9.0% of the sector’s ads run on digital, and 154 advertisers were still active in January 2026.
Where the volume moved, quarter by quarter
Ad volume indexed against the opening quarter = 100, inside one collection batch. The 2026 exports are not on the same footing, so the trend stays within the 12 months to September 2025 rather than crossing that boundary.
Up 46% on the opening quarter.
Up 19% on the opening quarter.
Up 237% on the opening quarter.
Ads recorded per quarter across the 12 months to September 2025, indexed to Oct-Dec 24. Media with too few ads to compare are left out.
The preferred medium
Print captured the highest share of the sector’s ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025, at 49.7% of estimated television, print and radio spend. Digital sits outside this split because TAM prices it on a different scale; it is reported by ad count instead.
A plan that skips print buys a smaller share of this category’s voice than the headline spend suggests.
