The Glitch bags digital mandate for OLX Autos
New Delhi: OLX Autos has appointed The Glitch for its digital duties. The digital-first creative agency within the VMLY&R network has won the account through a competitive pitch.
As a part of this partnership, The Glitch will partner with OLX Autos to create awareness and recognition for the brand across India via a robust digital strategy.
The Glitch has a decade of experience in building digital-first brands and championing editorial-first content. It will be responsible for re-imagining OLX Autos presence online via focused and engaging content.
OLX Autos country head of marketing Siddharth Agrawal said, “We are very excited to have The Glitch on board as our partner.

We are humbled and excited to be partnering OLX Autos in their journey to do the same for the pre-owned cars segment across the country. Through innovative processes and solutions, they have been able to provide true value for their users since launching in 2009 and we look forward to helping further this through a unique social media strategy to unlock deeper engagement, understanding and conversations with their audience.”

Collective Creative Labs wins two Silver Effies, ranks top 15
Independent agency shines with strategy-led campaigns that move brands and culture
MUMBAI: Collective Creative Labs (CCL) has bagged two Silver Effies at the 25th Effie India Awards and claimed the 15th spot in the Agency of the Year rankings, marking a standout moment for the independent agency.
For a young agency built without legacy backing, these accolades go beyond trophies. They celebrate a fresh approach: starting with brand truth, sticking to strategy, and creating work that drives business, not just chatter.
Three years ago, Collective Artists Network spotted a gap in the market. Brands had access to creators and cultural moments but lacked cohesive strategy. CCL was born to fill that gap, blending cultural insight with disciplined brand planning to deliver campaigns that truly perform.
Collective Artists Network founder and group CEO Vijay Subramaniam said, “We were already sitting at a rare intersection of culture, creators, entertainment and influence. But brands don’t need access alone; they need alignment. CCL brings strategy to the heart of culture so that it drives real brand growth.”
CCL’s campaigns, including work for Zebronics, Rakesh Masala and Liberty, have travelled far beyond paid media, not chasing virality, but earning it through clarity of insight and purpose. Big names are used to amplify thinking, not replace it.
Collective Creative Labs CEO and partner at Collective Artists Network Sanjana Jain added, “Great work starts with clarity, what the brand stands for, the consumer’s reality, and the business goal. In a world that loves spectacle, we focus on outcomes. These awards validate that approach.”
Both Silver-winning campaigns were built on immersive consumer understanding and sharp strategic thinking, reinforcing CCL as a performance-driven creative partner. Operating where brands, culture, entertainment and emerging media intersect, CCL represents a new kind of agency model, uniting talent, content, influence and strategy under one roof.
For CCL, these wins and the Agency of the Year ranking are just markers of momentum, not the finish line.
