Short answer

To advertise to India, use OpenAI Ads Manager, create a campaign, select India in Locations, build ad groups around conversational context, add benefit-led creatives, complete review and billing, then launch and measure.

01

Set up an India-targeted campaign

India is now selectable at campaign level. Keep each campaign focused on one business goal and region so budget, reporting, and optimization remain interpretable.

  • Confirm your Ads Manager account is eligible
  • Choose the campaign objective
  • Select India under campaign locations
  • Set dates and budget
  • Create ad groups and submit ads for review
02

Target conversations, not a keyword list

ChatGPT considers conversational intent and other permitted relevance signals. Describe the situations where your offer genuinely helps, including the buyer, need, constraints, and stage of decision.

03

Localize the complete click journey

Use Indian terminology, relevant pricing and proof, a mobile-first landing page, and a conversion event that reflects the campaign goal. Avoid merely adding 'India' to generic international copy.

India targeting is live; advertiser access is separate

India can now be selected as the country a campaign targets. OpenAI maintains a separate, changing list of countries where businesses can open self-serve Ads Manager accounts. Confirm both before committing budget.
