This company is based in Mumbai and aims to break the barriers, defy norms and improve the state of the Indian advertising landscape.

The establishment of Ladyfinger was on the belief fact that a huge number of Indian advertisement is directed at women consumers, the perspective of women is either missing or predominantly characterized by casual gender stereotyping.
Tista Sen is the CEO & CCO of Ladyfinger with a team of professionals that work in this agency. She is a veteran of the advertising industry with over 20 years of expertise.

The Managing Director of Rediffusion, Dr. Sandeep Goyal said that most of the brands do not represent women's perspectives.
