Methodology & notes
Built from 18 industry-standard ad-monitoring and research sources; we count how many ads each brand ran and publish that number. No rupees. Categories are ranked by relative spend and advertiser count. 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.
