Bus panels across small-town Gujarat, every site geo-tagged on install

Colour coated roofing sheets sell in the small towns and semi-urban belts where houses are being built, which is exactly the network state transport buses cover. Panels ran in Gujarati across the Limbdi, Surendranagar, Dhrangadhra and Surat routes with a durability and colour promise. Every installation was photographed with its GPS coordinates, date and time stamped into the frame, including the night installs at the Udhna depot.

What it delivered

Geo-tagged proof settles the question that dogs a spread-out rural buy, which is whether a booked panel actually went up and where. The client received a location-stamped record for each site instead of a schedule they had to take on trust.

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. Geography (cities) covers print, radio and outdoor only. 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.
