Bengaluru out-of-home

Mall, tech park, and residential screens in Bangalore.

Captive screens are indoor digital displays in malls, tech parks, and residential communities — reaching a defined, often premium audience close to the point of decision. Namma OOH plans the right networks and runs them under one brief.

The valuable attention indoors

Some of the most valuable attention in Bangalore is indoors, in the places people spend their days and evenings: the malls they shop in, the tech parks they work in, and the residential communities they live in. Captive screens reach a defined, often premium audience in a relaxed, receptive setting, close to the point of decision.

Where they already are

Malls, tech parks, and communities

Indoor screens reach people in the places they spend their day — close to the point of purchase and the moment of decision.

Where it works

Malls. Screens in atriums, food courts, and near anchor stores, reaching shoppers in a spending frame of mind.

Tech parks. Screens in lobbies, lifts, cafeterias, and walkways across Bangalore's IT campuses, reaching a young, high-earning, hard-to-reach professional audience through the working day.

Residential communities. Screens in lobbies and common areas of apartment complexes, reaching households where they live, with repeated daily exposure.

Specialist operators run large networks across these environments, and the right network depends on exactly who you want to reach and where.

What it is good for

  • Reaching IT professionals where mass media struggles to.
  • Retail and F&B brands close to the point of purchase in malls.
  • Services aimed at households: home, finance, education, healthcare.
  • Hyper-local targeting by catchment, campus, or community.

How we handle it

Captive screen networks are fragmented across operators and venues. We identify the networks that match your audience, plan the screens and the schedule, manage the creative to each spec, and run the campaign with reporting. One brief covers malls, tech parks, and communities together, rather than chasing each operator yourself.

Who it suits

Consumer technology and apps, retail and food, financial services, education, healthcare, and any brand that wants a defined, premium, hyper-local audience.

  3. Produce for indoor screens

    Creative tuned for close-range, dwell-time viewing.

  4. Run and report

    We run the schedule and report delivery across networks.

Close to purchase

The last few metres

A screen by the food court or the office lobby reaches a captive, ready-to-act audience that the open street cannot.

What it costs (and what drives it)

Captive screen cost depends on the network and venue type — a premium mall atrium differs from a tech-park lift screen or a community noticeboard — and on how many venues you cover and for how long. Because the networks are fragmented across operators, value comes as much from curation as from rate.

We assemble the right venues under one brief so you are not negotiating with a dozen operators. We scope it to your audience and budget.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Captive networks are fragmented across operators and venues; we identify the right networks and cover malls, tech parks and communities under one brief.

Pick the venues your audience occupies — premium malls for shoppers, tech-park lobbies and lifts for the IT workforce, residential communities for families. We curate coverage across the fragmented operators under one brief so the audience is precise.

The network and venue type (a premium mall versus a tech-park lift versus a community screen), the number of venues, and the duration. Because operators are fragmented, curation matters as much as rate.

Yes — that is the point of working with us. Captive inventory is spread across many operators; we assemble the right venues across malls, tech parks and communities under a single brief and a single report.
