After antitrust raids, Indian ad group warns against pricing coordination

After high-profile antitrust raids in India, a group of major ad agencies has asked members, who include GroupM, Dentsu and Publicis, to avoid communicating with rivals over WhatsApp or share sensitive pricing data, a document shows. The Competition Commission of India (CCI) shook the sector in March with dawn raids during an investigation of suspected collusion over publicity rates and discounts in the world's eighth biggest ad market with 2025 revenues of $18.5 billion. The investigation has cast a shadow on India's fast-growing broadcast and streaming sector, which counts Reliance-Disney and Sony among top players, and could alter how advertising is priced and sold by global media buying agencies.

India's antitrust raids this week on media buying agencies followed tip-offs under a leniency scheme that reduces penalties for companies providing evidence, three people familiar with the matter told Reuters. Japan's Dentsu was at least one firm that has applied for the scheme, one of the people said. Dentsu declined to comment.
