ads over the years have left a lasting impression over the years. Be it Amul’s «Utterly Butterly Delicious,» which has been in circulation since 1966, or Cadbury ads, all of them have played a pivotal role in marketing a brand. Ads, as we know them, have a profound influence on buyers’ decisions and perceptions. Advertisements play a crucial role in placing a brand in the spotlight and capturing consumer attention.

However, in the pursuit of gaining consumer share, some brands are said to resort to misleading claims in their ads. Advertisements frequently use emotional appeals to persuade consumers. This can lead to decisions based on emotions rather than facts. Misleading visuals or language can make products appear more effective than they are. For example, the ASCI banned Kellogg’s Special K cereal ad in 2019 for unsubstantiated claims about reducing belly fat, something so many of us are always looking out for!

Siddhartha Khemka, Head-Retail Research, MOFSL, says if the BJP manages on its own around 340-350 seats, that will definitely enthuse the market to some extent and overall, we are expecting that barring a few days of volatility, market focus will return to fundamentals. On both the macro as well as on the micro front, India stands pretty confident with 6.5 plus percent growth expected for the next two years and 16- 18% corporate earnings growth for next two years.
