Frequently Asked Questions

How are TV ad rates calculated in India?
Rates are priced per 10-second spot based on timeband (Prime Time vs Non-Prime), channel TRP ratings, and CPRP (Cost Per Rating Point) benchmarks agreed with the network.
What is the difference between Prime Time and Non-Prime Time?
Prime Time (7 PM–11 PM) has peak family viewership and commands the highest spot rates. Non-Prime Time offers cost-efficient frequency building at lower rates.
What is BARC and why is it important?
BARC (Broadcast Audience Research Council) measures television viewership ratings in India. RiYO uses BARC data to select the best-performing channels and timebands for your media plan.
What lead time is required to launch a TV campaign?
Campaigns can go live within 3–5 days once broadcast-ready video masters and telecast clearances are submitted to the network.
How do I know my TV commercial actually aired?
RiYO provides official BARC telecast log reports and signed network telecast certificates verifying the exact channel, date, and time your ad aired.
What is an L-band in TV advertising?
An L-band is an L-shaped graphic overlay displayed on the sides and bottom of the live TV screen during an ongoing program — non-intrusive and highly visible without breaking from the show.
Which TV channels are best for reaching urban audiences in India?
Star Plus, Zee TV, Sony LIV, Colors TV, NDTV, Republic TV, and CNN-News18 deliver strong urban and metro viewership. English channels like CNBC-TV18 target high-income professionals.
Can I advertise on regional language TV channels?
Yes. RiYO plans campaigns across regional language networks including Sun TV (Tamil), ETV (Telugu), Star Vijay, Zee Kannada, Asianet (Malayalam), and Zee Marathi.
What video specifications are required for TV ad submission?
Most networks require HD 1920x1080 video files in MXF or MOV format with stereo audio at 48 kHz. RiYO delivers broadcast-ready masters to all network ingest centers.
What is a TV channel roadblock and when should I use it?
A network roadblock is when your ad airs simultaneously across all channels of one network (e.g., all Star or Zee channels) during a prime hour — ideal for product launches and major announcements.
