Assamese rooftop and roadside hoardings for a recovery drink
A recovery drink launching in Assam has to arrive in Assamese or it arrives as an import. The buy took rooftop hoardings on commercial buildings and roadside sites on the town approaches, all carrying the Restore line in Assamese with a face the market recognises, so the product read as local from the first sighting. Rooftop sites hold the skyline in towns where the tallest structure is three storeys, which is why they were chosen over street furniture.
Language and casting together decide whether a national brand reads as regional in this market, and both were set before a single site was bought. Rooftop placement in low-rise towns gives a hoarding a sightline it would never get in a metro.
Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Personal care advertising in India
Television is the sector’s leading medium, taking 79.9% of ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025. Hindustan Unilever leads on 17.1% of that spend, 6.5% of the sector’s ads run on digital, and 1,008 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.
Down 31% on the opening quarter.
Up 116% on the opening quarter.
Down 63% 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
Television captured the highest share of the sector’s ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025, at 79.9% 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 television buys a smaller share of this category’s voice than the headline spend suggests.
