Digital media claims 46% of India's Rs 1 lakh crore ad market: Crisil
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel India's advertising industry has crossed the Rs 1 lakh crore mark, with digital media emerging as the dominant force, cornering nearly 46% of the total ad spend in fiscal 2025, according to Crisil Intelligence The advertising market has grown at a compound annual rate of 6–7% over the past five fiscal years, but the most significant shift has been in the allocation of ad media, which once accounted for nearly two-thirds of the market, has seen its share shrink drastically. In fiscal 2020, television, print, and other conventional formats held around 65% share, but that has declined to 46–47% last advertising, which constituted just 24% of total spend in fiscal 2020, has nearly doubled its share in five years. This trend is expected to continue. Crisil expects digital ad spending to grow by 9–11% this year, while traditional media is likely to stagnate.'The shift is evident in the ad spend patterns of major consumer-facing sectors such as fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), automobiles and e-commerce,' said Pushan Sharma, Director, Crisil Intelligence. 'FMCG companies now allocate 55–60% of their ad budgets to digital, up from 30% in fiscal 2020. This includes content creator collaborations, targeted ads and other digital formats. Automobile companies have also increased their digital ad spends to 35–40% in fiscal 2025, compared with 15–20% in fiscal 2020. Similarly, for e-commerce players, digital channels now account for up to 60% of ad spends.'The digital ecosystem itself has evolved. In fiscal 2020, search dominated with a 40–42% share of digital spend, followed by social media at 31–33%. But by fiscal 2025, social media's share has surged to 40–45%, driven by short-form videos and creator-led content. YouTube's share has also risen significantly to 20–22% due to its ubiquity across urban and rural India, ease of access, and ad-supported free content. Meanwhile, the share of search has declined by 5–6 percentage points, a sign of a maturing and more diverse digital advertising Master, Associate Director, Crisil Intelligence, linked the shift to rapid digital adoption. 'This shift is closely linked to India's digital evolution. Smartphone users rose to 700 million in 2024 from 500 million in 2019. Mobile data in India is among the cheapest in the world, averaging just $0.16 per gigabyte (GB), compared with $2.50 globally. Average daily screen time has increased to over five hours a day from four in 2019, with OTT and social media accounting for 60% of it. A growing share of time is spent on passive browsing of short-form videos or trending content, highlighting the ongoing shift to instant, immersive formats without deep engagement.'Traditional platforms are also being squeezed by structural shifts. TV broadcasters are losing viewers to OTT services, while distribution networks are losing ground to fibre-based services. The direct-to-home (DTH) segment alone lost more than 10 million subscribers between December 2020 and 2024. Print media, meanwhile, faces stagnant circulation and falling readership, with a decline of nearly 500 basis points over five years, as readers and advertisers shift to digital news forward, Crisil believes the trajectory toward digital is irreversible. Digital platforms offer greater targeting accuracy, better cost efficiency, and more measurable engagement, making them attractive even to traditional advertisers. Brands are increasingly adopting digital-first strategies to keep pace with consumer the report notes that much of India's digital ad spending is going to foreign-owned platforms, such as Meta and Google. 'Thus, there is a case to build and support domestic digital platforms to retain greater value within the country and ensure India plays a more active role in shaping its digital future,' the report adds.

ED probe into Anil Ambani linked companies: What turns bad loan into fraud
On Saturday, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested a company director in a ₹3,000 crore loan 'fraud' case allegedly linked to entities associated with Anil Ambani's Reliance ADAG group. The arrest, under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), is the first in the case. While the probe continues, it brings to light a key regulatory distinction: when does a loan stop being a business risk and start being a criminal fraud? Default, wilful default, fraud: What RBI says India's financial system sees loan issues on a scale: default, wilful default, and fraud. Fraud: According to RBI's Master Directions on Frauds Classification and Reporting by Commercial Banks and Select FIs, a fraud involves deliberate deception using false documents, shell firms, and accounting manipulation. Classification as fraud follows a forensic audit and internal bank committee approval. When does PMLA come in? Fraud under PMLA is triggered when the activity generates 'proceeds of crime'. The sequence is: A default occurs The bank detects anomalies and initiates a forensic audit The audit confirms diversion or misreporting The bank files an FIR and classifies the loan as fraud ED or CBI steps in if criminality is apparent According to Section 3 of the PMLA, anyone knowingly involved in activities connected to proceeds of crime is guilty of money laundering. Where the Anil Ambani-linked case fits in The ED is investigating loans worth ₹3,000 crore taken by entities allegedly tied to the Reliance ADAG group. The funds were reportedly routed through shell companies to avoid repayment, triggering PMLA charges. The arrested individual, a director of a Mumbai firm, allegedly played a key role in the laundering process. While Anil Ambani has not been named in the arrest note, the ED has reportedly issued a lookout notice against him. He has also been summoned for questioning by the agency on Tuesday, August 5. Loan fraud vs bad loan: What's the difference? In India, many large defaults stem from business failure, not fraud. Some of the common causes include: Market downturns Failed business models External shocks (like Covid-19 or raw material inflation) In such cases, the resolution is civil and typically handled under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). Fraud, however, requires evidence of intent—such as fake documentation or shell entities—and often results in criminal proceedings. What past loan frauds reveal Several high-profile frauds have followed similar playbooks: DHFL–Wadhawan (₹34,000 crore): Fake housing loans and fund diversion to shell entities ABG Shipyard (₹22,842 crore): Inflated assets and overseas fund routing Rotomac Pens (₹3,695 crore): Misuse of export credits for unrelated firms IL&FS: Inter-company lending inflated asset books and masked real exposure What happens after a fraud label? Once a loan is declared fraudulent: Borrowers are barred from bank finance for five years Lenders can initiate asset recovery via SARFAESI or IBC ED/CBI may seize assets and press charges Criminal convictions can lead to jail terms and financial penalties Borrowers often contest the fraud tag in courts, delaying outcomes Both civil and criminal paths proceed in parallel, making resolution complex and time-consuming.
