Banks topped recall efficiency on IPL 2026 CTV ads
Despite representing a lower share of impressions, BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) brands achieved the highest recall efficiency on Connected TV (CTV) during IPL 2026. This indicates that while other advertisers dominated airtime, financial brands successfully captured viewer attention.
Key Takeaways
- BFSI brands posted the highest recall efficiency on Connected TV during IPL 2026.
- India’s biggest advertisers dominated IPL 2026 airtime on CTV, but not viewer recall.
- BFSI spent from a lower impression share and still outperformed larger airtime buyers on memory metrics.

For streaming ad buyers, that makes recall efficiency a more useful lens than raw airtime volume in a high-attention sports environment. The competitive signal is especially relevant for BFSI advertisers, which appear to have converted limited CTV exposure into stronger memory than India’s biggest advertisers. The next concrete metric to watch is whether future IPL CTV reports break out recall efficiency by category alongside impression share.
