Capitalise on Low-Cost Indian Advertising In the World’s Fastest-Growing Consumer Market
India is historically an underused destination for brand advertisers, but more and more are recognising its enormous potential. A population of 1.4 billion and the sharp rise in international visitors, reaching a staggering 1.7 billion a year, represent a superb opportunity in a low-competition environment.
Over recent years, interest in India as a tourist and commercial hub has generated a 48.6% spike in the influx of travellers and professionals, with equally dramatic changes to the Indian outdoor advertising market.
With sustained year-on-year growth, the sector is now worth an estimated ₹3000 crore – over £276 million. That is partly due to the certainty of excellent returns, the status of India’s consumer market as the fastest growing internationally, the considerable growth in disposable incomes, urbanisation and digital technology adaptation, and surges in consumer spending.
Why Advertise in India?
The size of the potential market in India is vast. Increases in the proportion of residents with middle to high incomes means that opportunities, often without existing competition, allow brands to tap into this wide-open market, which has a large proportion of younger adults and a highly skilled workforce.
Outdoor advertising in India is also highly accessible, with lower average costs than in almost every developed nation. This is supported by investments in infrastructure and government initiatives to attract businesses and professionals. These include Digital India, a scheme designed to appeal to foreign companies and make it easier to do business in the country.
As the Indian economy continues to grow, brands can leverage opportunities to advertise directly to affluent consumer demographics and young professional audiences or seize the chance to break into established industries such as technology, services, and manufacturing.
While infrastructure such as digital networks and transportation remains a work in progress, the improvements made over recent years have resulted in a rapid increase in the touchpoints and out-of-home advertising formats available—ideal for ambitious brands who want to establish themselves in this market at the optimal time.

Advertising in India: Key Formats

Billboard Advertising in India
Billboards have long been a staple in the urban outdoor environment. They are prominent features in India's largest, busiest cities, including Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, and Hyderabad—with Mumbai alone having an astonishing 12 million+ local population.
Brands can use strategic billboard placements to maximise impressions or select specific locations that align with their target audience. Options might include billboards in Phoenix Market City – one of India’s largest malls in central Mumbai, or advertising to international business people and tourists on transport links to the Taj Mahal or around Indira Gandhi International Airport.

Digital Billboards
The enthusiasm for digital means that moving, animated and video screens are available in numerous locations, providing immersive and interactive advertising that prompts user engagement and responsiveness.
Indoor screens in public spaces like Lulu Mall Thiruvananthapuram, a massive complex spanning 2.2 million square feet in Kerala, or outdoor eye-level promotions work equally well. They use data points such as the weather or footfall to enhance the relevance of the messaging or advertising shown.

Frequently Asked Questions.
-
Absolutely—in fact, the Indian government has been proactive about introducing initiatives and schemes to attract investment in the country. It welcomes businesses that want to establish a base or extend their reach to provide augmented competition within the Indian market.
Of course, there are regulations that control out-of-home advertising, but these are fairly simple to comply with, and the One Day team can advise if there are any specific rules that may apply to your campaigns.
Examples include restrictions on billboards or screens that are too close to road traffic lights, localised regulations about dynamic messaging, and back-lit screens that could pose a hazard to drivers.
-
The major Indian cities are the primary places for successful outdoor advertising, owing to the size of the local populations, the concentration of businesses and commercial activity, and the number of visitors.
