Kokuyo Camlin welcomes Google’s new logo with virtual crayons
MUMBAI: Stationery and art brand Kokuyo Camlin has given its fun take on Google’s new logo launch.
Kokuyo Camlin’s video response on the new logo builds upon Google’s first major redesign of its logo in 17 years, through the creative route ‘If it’s Crayons, it’s Camlin.’ The video, shared on Twitter, expresses how the universal appeal of Camlin’s art and stationery products also extends to the virtual world, while highlighting the colourful and interactive look and feel of the new Google logo.
Expanding on its core proposition of ‘Let’s Have Fun,’ the video, which has been created and conceptualised by Kokuyo Camlin’s digital agency, Big I Tuna, represents Camlin’s dedication to helping art lovers bring their imagination to life virtually and create masterpieces sitting anywhere.
Kokuyo Camlin chief marketing officer Saumitra Prasad said, “As marketers of Camel, the pioneer and largest brand of crayons, we are delighted to see the new logo of Google inspired by crayons. As Kokuyo Camlin aims to make learning fun for children through its art and stationery products, we are happy to see the world moving towards the same direction where art and creativity is being encouraged.”

IndiGo names William Walsh CEO
Former IATA chief to take charge in August after Elbers exit, Bhatia steers interim
India’s biggest airline has moved fast and gone global. InterGlobe Aviation, which operates IndiGo, has tapped aviation heavyweight William Walsh as chief executive officer, subject to regulatory approvals, marking a sharp pivot as the carrier eyes its next burst of expansion.
Walsh, currently director general at the International Air Transport Association, will step down on July 31, 2026, and is expected to take charge by August 3. The appointment comes barely three weeks after Pieter Elbers exited the corner office, with Rahul Bhatia holding the fort in the interim.
The choice signals intent. Walsh brings decades of cockpit-to-boardroom experience, having led British Airways and later International Airlines Group, the parent of Aer Lingus, Iberia and Vueling. His tenure across carriers has been defined by hard resets, restructurings and cross-border consolidation—skills IndiGo may need as competition intensifies and scale becomes decisive.
Vikram Singh Mehta, chairman and non-executive independent director of IndiGo, said Walsh’s experience in managing large-scale airline operations and navigating complex market dynamics makes him well-suited to lead IndiGo in an increasingly competitive global aviation environment, adding that the appointment marks a new chapter as the airline scales in one of the world’s fastest-growing markets.
Rahul Bhatia said Walsh’s global perspective, operational expertise and customer-focused approach would be critical as IndiGo enters its next phase of expansion.
Walsh, widely regarded as one of the industry’s most influential figures, will oversee overall management and strategic direction, with a mandate spanning operational performance, network expansion, commercial strategy and customer experience. He is expected to work closely with the board and leadership team to sharpen IndiGo’s growth trajectory.
Walsh said IndiGo has a strong foundation and is well-positioned to capitalise on the evolving aviation landscape, adding that he looks forward to fostering a culture of excellence, innovation and sustainable value creation across the organisation.
A new captain, a bigger runway—and a market that rewards scale. IndiGo is lining up for its next take-off.
