The Awards are limited to entries from broadcasters (TV, radio), publishers (print, online) and OTT players. Entries must relate to the media brands themselves and are not open to advertisers in media.
The primary aim of the Awards is to reward creative communication by media brands in India. The Media Brand Awards are therefore open to all forms of media.
