On May 30, 2025, The's trading volume reached 11.50 billion, marking a significant increase of 738.69% compared to the previous day. This surge placed The at the 115th position in terms of trading volume for the day.

Omnicom's proposed acquisition of Interpublic, announced on December 9, 2024, has sparked discussions about the future of their six creative agencies in India. Both companies currently operate three leading creative agencies each in the country. The merger, valued at over $13 billion, aims to create a powerful entity in the advertising industry. However, the sustainability of operating six full-service creative shops independently in a competitive market remains uncertain. The UK watchdog has launched an inquiry into the merger, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.

As the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 comes to a close, ad slots are becoming increasingly premium, with rates rising by 10-15%. This trend is likely to impact the advertising strategies of both Omnicom and IPG, as they navigate the changing landscape of the industry. The merger, if approved, could lead to significant changes in the creative agencies' operations and strategies, potentially affecting The's stock performance in the long run.
