TV advertising can ensure brand outreach in the number of millions with a single ad on a national TV channel. However, there is also a sizeable scope of reaching out to the local and regional audiences through TV advertising. India has a consolidated network of local cable TV channels whose numbers go up to thousands. These are effective in establishing brand recognition among a more concentrated audience base. For instance, local businesses mostly swear by cable TV advertising to build brand recognition in the market utilizing TV media buying services. Therefore, it is possible to engage in geo-targeting and hyperlocal advertising through cable TV advertising in India.

TV is broadcasted through two mediums in India – cable and DTH. DTH Advertising or Direct-to-home advertising involves advertising through specific DTH media providers. TV advertising involves branding that can be viewed by people watching a specific channel at the same time. However, through DTH advertising, you will be able to advertise your brand to the subscribers of a specific DTH provider. Because of the rising demand for the DTH services (70.70 million as of September 2020), DTH advertising too is gaining steady popularity. A few of the popular DTH providers are Tata Sky, Airtel DTH, and Videocon DTH.

DTH advertising offers a range of services that allows the brands to create a strong brand image among viewers. They are – branding on the landing channel, branding on the ‘Search and Scan’ banner, geo-targeting services, image branding on the ‘Guide’ menu, interactive ads, etc.

The rates of TV advertising are dependent on the TV channel, time slot, and the ad type that you opt for branding purposes. They are calculated based on 10 seconds of broadcast time.
