Mumbai: The Sleep Company (TSC), a Comfort-Tech brand, distributed around Rs 1 crore worth of free mattresses across major metros including Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Hyderabad. As per the press release, This makes it India’s first mattress brand to announce such a huge giveaway and is a testament to the leadership’s vision of helping India sleep better.
TSC recently launched its 100th COCO (Company-owned, Company-operated) store in India and celebrated the significant milestone with this offer, making it a unique opportunity for people across the nation to experience the unparalleled comfort and quality of its mattress at no cost.
The free mattress giveaway campaign received an overwhelming response from people nationwide on 31st August 2024. A total of 6000+ individuals visited the designated TSC stores across four cities to claim the free mattresses patented with SmartGRID technology, displaying a remarkable enthusiasm for its world-class product. The Sleep Company further delighted residents by offering 1000+ free pillows to those who visited its stores during the offer time, ensuring that more people experience the comfort of its products. Before the stores even opened, a long queue of eager customers had already formed, making a historic mark with the store packed with people.
To create awareness about the massive giveaway, The Sleep Company also engaged over 100 influencers by giving them a first-hand experience of its products at its stores and leveraged traditional print media to engage directly with city locals.
The Sleep Company co-founder Priyanka Salot said, “We are thrilled to celebrate the 100th store milestone by giving away 100 free mattresses across India in our mission to help people sleep better.

NATIONAL: Amazon Ads has laid out a sharply tech-led vision for the advertising industry in 2026, arguing that artificial intelligence, streaming TV and creator partnerships will combine to turn brand building into a more precise, performance-driven business.
At the heart of the shift, the company says, is the fusion of AI with Amazon’s vast trove of shopping, browsing and streaming signals, allowing advertisers to move beyond blunt reach metrics to campaigns designed around real customer behaviour.
“The future of advertising is not about reaching more people, but the right people with messages that resonate,” said Amazon Ads India head and vice president Girish Prabhu. “By combining AI with deep customer insights, we help brands move from broadcasting campaigns to having meaningful conversations wherever audiences spend their time.”
One of the biggest changes, according to Amazon Ads, will be the collapse of the wall between media planning and creative development. Retail media, powered by first-party data, is increasingly shaping everything from brand discovery to final purchase, pushing marketers to design campaigns around audience insight rather than internal instinct.
AI is also moving from a support tool to a creative engine. Agentic AI, which automates and accelerates production, is expected to make high-quality creative accessible even to small businesses, compressing weeks of work into hours and giving challengers the ability to compete with larger brands on speed and scale.
Behind the scenes, AI-driven analytics will take on a bigger role in campaign optimisation, identifying patterns, spotting opportunities and recommending actions that would previously have required teams of analysts.
Streaming TV is another big battleground. With India’s video streaming audience now above 600 million and connected TV users at 129.2 million in 2025, advertisers are set to treat streaming not just as a branding channel but as a performance engine, measured increasingly by sales, sign-ups and bookings rather than just reach.
Finally, Amazon Ads sees creators and contextual advertising reshaping how brands tell stories. Creators will act less like influencers and more like long-term partners, while scene-aware ads on streaming platforms will allow brands to insert hyper-relevant offers into the flow of what viewers are watching.
Taken together, Amazon Ads argues, these shifts mark a move towards advertising that is both more human and more measurable, where AI handles the complexity, and creativity does the persuading.
