From $11B to $22B: India’s digital ad boom forecast by 2030
New Delhi: India’s digital advertising market is projected to double over the next five years, reaching up to $22 billion by 2030, according to a report released Friday by market research firm Redseer Consulting.
The Indian digital ad market currently stands at $11 billion in 2025 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 10-15%, putting it in the range of $19 billion to $22 billion by 2030, said Madhav Gulati, senior consultant at Redseer Consulting.
