Empowering home-builders

UltraTech as a brand understands Individual Home Builders’ (IHB) true motivation behind building a home. A home builder sees a home not just as a structure but as an important life milestone. Most IHBs often feel the need for an expert to empower them in the process of building their first home. UltraTech saw a potential to make a difference in the lives of these first-time home builders and thus strengthening its position as a trusted home building companion. #BaatGharKi campaign was conceptualised to address this need.

This award-winning campaign engaged with IHBs through a series of impressive television and digital content, including social media explaining the process of home building.
