Methodology & notes

Built from 18 industry-standard ad-monitoring and research sources. Every figure is a count of ads recorded, not rupees, because ad cost is not comparable between TV, radio, print and online. City figures cover print and radio, the two media bought market by market. Television and digital are bought nationally, so they are not split by city. Updated monthly. Full methodology →

Coverage: these figures reflect the advertising we were able to track across our data sources, a large sample but not every ad placed in India. Treat them as a directional, relative picture, not an absolute or complete record.
