MUMBAI: Betting on business just got a digital upgrade and it starts with a “Lagi Shart?.” Indiamart, the country’s largest online B2B marketplace, has dropped a cheeky new campaign that’s all bets, banter, and business. Titled ‘Kaam Yahin Banta Hai’, the campaign reimagines the age-old generational faceoff old-school dad vs digital-savvy son through a series of playful ad films that land one punchline repeatedly: when it comes to business, Indiamart just gets it done.
The campaign hinges on the classic Indian dare Lagi Shart? as the son consistently outsmarts the father by sourcing better deals, bulk buys, and trustworthy suppliers on Indiamart. The punchline: every bet ends in a win thanks to tech, transparency, and trust.
And the numbers back the brag. Indiamart now serves over 211 million registered buyers, connecting them with a massive network of 8 million plus suppliers across the country. With a staggering 119 million plus products listed, the platform ensures variety and depth like no other. Trust is baked in, too thanks to over 8 million product reviews and ratings, and the fact that 40 per cent of sellers are GST-verified. All of this has earned Indiamart a solid 4.8 rating on the Play Store, reinforcing its position as the go-to digital marketplace for Indian businesses.
The campaign cleverly flips the script on how Indian businesses traditionally operate, highlighting how shifting from offline chaos to digital clarity can be a game-changer. The creative brain behind the campaign, ART-E Mediatech, used this generational gap as creative gold, striking a tone that’s both nostalgic and now.
With nearly three decades of presence, Indiamart has evolved into more than just a listings site, it’s a matchmaking engine for MSMEs and large enterprises alike, connecting demand and supply with digital precision.
So, the next time someone challenges your sourcing smarts, you know what to say, Lagi Shart?
