SAMCO Securities launches its new latest TVC
Mumbai: SAMCO Securities, an investment-tech company, has launched a new TVC campaign titled “Options B.R.O. Banayega Aapko Options Trading Mein Pro”. This campaign is designed to educate investors and raise awareness about SAMCO’s latest feature, “Options B.R.O” (build, research, optimise) which simplifies options trading for retail investors.
The derivative markets face a troubling issue: a staggering 97.8 per cent of traders have suffered significant losses due to the absence of effective hedging strategies. To bring awareness about this problem, SAMCO Securities has launched the campaign ‘Options B.R.O. Banayega Aapko Options Trading Mein Pro’. The campaign is created in collaboration with The Womb. The centerpiece of this initiative is a 30-second commercial that uses humour to highlight the challenges of options trading and demonstrate how Options B.R.O. can provide the necessary education and tools to overcome them.
SAMCO Group founder and CEO Jimeet Modi commented, “Options trading can be incredibly challenging and intimidating, especially for those just starting. With Options B.R.O, we aim to simplify the process and provide traders with the essential tools and their trade’s Andekha Sach that help them to navigate the complexities of options trading and trade with confidence.”
‘Options B.R.O.’ campaign is a unique film featuring a man and a crow. In the film, the man, dressed in traditional attire, wonders aloud about becoming a pro in options trading. The crow responds with a series of ‘Kaw Kaw’ sounds, reflecting a common concern among traders. The man then enthusiastically reveals that with SAMCO’s ‘Options B.R.O.’ becoming an expert in options trading is now within reach. As the crow starts enjoying the food, the film underscores how SAMCO’s innovative platform transforms options trading into an accessible and empowering experience. The campaign reinforces SAMCO’s promise with the tagline, “Aapke Options Trading Ka Andheka Sach” (The unseen truth of options trading).
SAMCO Securities chief growth officer Ajay Dusane added by saying, “The introduction of Options B.R.O is set to make a significant impact in the trading industry. We anticipate that this feature will be warmly received by traders, providing them with the resources they need to trade options with confidence and precision. It’s a game-changer that aligns with our mission to empower traders with their trade’s Andekha Sach and foster growth in the trading community.”
The Womb chief creative officer Suyash Khabya said, “Options Trading is complicated. Its advertising shouldn’t be. We kept it simple yet ‘unignorable’ by drawing on Indian culture—a grandson conversing with his Dadu, who is a crow. This creative approach aims to engage traders and highlight the benefits of Options B.R.O. We’ve always enjoyed creating ads for SAMCO, and it shows in our work.”
The Options B.R.O feature is now available on the SAMCO Trading App, ready to empower traders with the tools they need to excel in the competitive world of options trading. With this new addition, SAMCO continues its commitment to providing unseen insights that drive success for traders at all levels.

Oyo parent Prism appoints former Sebi chief Ajay Tyagi to Board
Former market regulator joins Prism to strengthen governance for IPO
NEW DELHI: Prism, the parent entity of Oyo, has appointed former Sebi chairman Ajay Tyagi as an independent director, as the hospitality firm gears up for its planned Rs 6,650 crore initial public offering (IPO).
Tyagi, a 1984-batch IAS officer, served as chairman of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) from 2017 to 2022. His appointment is aimed at strengthening the company’s governance framework and providing strategic oversight as it moves closer to a public listing.
He joins a high-profile board that already includes several prominent names from global business and policy circles. These include Troy Matthew Alstead, former CFO and group president of Starbucks; Aditya Ghosh, co-founder of Akasa Air; Deepa Malik, paralympic athlete and Padma Shri awardee; William Steve Albrecht, professor of accountancy at Utah State University; and Bejul Somaia, partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners.
Prism founder Ritesh Agarwal, said Tyagi’s experience in capital markets regulation and public-institution stewardship will be critical as the company scales operations and enhances long-term accountability.
The company recently filed preliminary papers with Sebi to raise Rs 6,650 crore through a confidential route. Market sources estimate its valuation will be in the range of $7 billion to $8 billion.
Over the course of his career, Tyagi has held senior roles in the ministry of finance, where he oversaw investment policy and financial-sector reforms. His induction to the Prism board signals a renewed focus on aligning the company’s internal standards with the stringent requirements of public markets as it advances toward its IPO.
