Our read
Pidilite Industries is likely to keep its media approach steady under an internal promotion, not reset it.
For operators
Pidilite is filling its top media role from within, with a leader who has agency experience at Carat India and Madison Communications, so expect continuity in media planning and agency relationships rather than a change of direction.
