The field is growing at a flying rate. According to a major report, the expenditure of ads is likely to multiply exponentially in a couple of years.

Ltd., cites that it gives the ad inventory amount back to the main company, which adds somewhere up to Rs.1,960 crore in the latest fiscal year. The amount that contributed to the net revenue of this Indian division was Rs. 263 crore.

Per sources, Facebook’s revenue from online ad ventures had an overall rise of 71 percent this “year-on-year”, only to reach a glorious Rs. 892 crore in this fiscal year.

This made the profit for the social media colossus rise by 84 percent which amounts up to Rs. 105 crore, mentioned the reports.
Google India Pvt. on the other hand as per what the reports mentioned displayed Rs. 1, 097 crores as its “net sales” from online advertisements.
