What are Meta Ads, and why use an expert?
Meta Ads are paid ads on Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp and Threads, created and managed in Meta Ads Manager. You choose a goal such as leads, messages or sales, set a budget, and Meta shows your ads to the people most likely to act, by location, age, interests and behaviour.
Unlike search ads, Meta Ads reach people before they start looking, so the creative does most of the work. A scroll-stopping image or Reel, a clear offer and an easy next step, like a lead form or a WhatsApp chat, decide whether your budget turns into customers.
Meta's delivery is now largely automated, with Advantage+ campaigns, audiences and placements. Automation works only as well as the signals it gets, so we focus on what still makes the difference: fresh, varied creatives, correct pixel and Conversions API tracking, clean lead forms and quick follow-up. Campaigns run in your own ad account, so the data and history stay yours.
How a Meta ad turns a scroll into a lead
From the feed to a WhatsApp chat in a few seconds. This is the journey we build and optimise for your business.

Meta ad rules and GST to know before you start
Getting these right avoids rejected ads, restricted accounts and lost tax credit.
- Every accountBusiness verificationMeta may ask you to verify your business with documents such as GST or incorporation certificates, especially to use advanced features or spend more.
- Since 31 July 2025SEBI verification for investment adsAds about securities and investments shown to people in India need the advertiser verified with SEBI registration details, which appear in the ad's disclaimer.
- Special categoriesCredit, jobs, housing & social issuesThese ads must be declared as a special ad category, which limits targeting. Political and social-issue ads need authorisation and a "Paid for by" disclaimer.
- Every invoice18% GST on ad spendIf Meta bills you from outside India, GST-registered businesses pay 18% IGST under reverse charge and claim it back as input tax credit. If billed with GST, claim it from the invoice. Add your GSTIN in billing.
- RestrictedHealth, weight loss, finance & moreBefore-and-after images, personal-attribute wording ("Are you overweight?") and unrealistic claims get ads rejected. We write copy that stays within the rules.
- Your businessTDS on ad paymentsTax treatment depends on which Meta entity bills you. The 6% equalisation levy on online ads was abolished from 1 April 2025. Check TDS with your accountant; our accounting team can help.

WhatsApp APIMeta Ads management: frequently asked questions
How much does Meta Ads management cost?+
Our management fee starts at ₹7,999 a month + GST for ad budgets up to ₹50,000, ₹14,999 a month for budgets up to ₹2 lakh, and 10% of ad spend (minimum ₹24,999) above that. Ad creatives are included. Your ad budget is separate and paid directly to Meta.
What is the minimum budget for Facebook and Instagram ads?+
Meta lets you start with a small daily budget, but to get enough results for the system to learn, most local businesses should start from about ₹15,000 to ₹30,000 a month in ad spend. E-commerce brands usually need more to test products and creatives.
How much does a lead cost on Meta Ads?+
It depends on your industry, city, audience, offer and creative. Simple local leads can cost a few hundred rupees or less, while competitive categories like real estate, education or finance cost more. Use the calculator above for a rough estimate; we share realistic numbers in the free plan.
Are Facebook ads or Instagram ads better?+
You usually don't have to choose. One campaign can run on both, and Meta shifts budget to where results are cheaper. Instagram and Reels tend to suit products and younger audiences, while Facebook often works well for lead forms, local services and older audiences.
What are click-to-WhatsApp ads?+
They're Facebook and Instagram ads with a "Send message" button that opens a WhatsApp chat with your business. They suit services, clinics, coaching, real estate and local shops, because customers can ask questions straight away. Pair them with the WhatsApp Business API for auto-replies and a team inbox.
What are lead ads and instant forms?+
Lead ads open a short form inside Facebook or Instagram, pre-filled with the user's name, phone and email. We add qualifying questions to improve lead quality and send leads instantly to your Google Sheet, CRM or WhatsApp.
Do you create the ad designs and videos?+
Yes. Every plan includes ad creatives: static designs, carousels and Reel edits, using your photos, videos and brand. Creative is the biggest driver of results on Meta, so we refresh it regularly.
What are Advantage+ campaigns?+
Advantage+ is Meta's automated setup that uses AI to choose audiences, placements and creative combinations. It often lowers cost per result, but only with good conversion tracking and enough varied creatives, which is where we focus.
What is the Meta pixel and Conversions API?+
The pixel is code on your website that tells Meta when someone views a page, submits a form or buys. The Conversions API sends the same events from your server, which is more reliable with ad blockers and browser privacy limits. Together they help Meta find people likely to convert.
Who owns the ad account and page?+
You do. Campaigns run in an ad account in your own Meta business portfolio. We get partner access only, so your page, data and history stay with you even if you stop working with us.
How soon will I see results?+
Ads can bring leads within days of going live. Each ad set goes through a learning phase, roughly the first 50 results, and we refine audiences and creatives over the first 4 to 8 weeks, so results usually improve over the first 3 months.
Why was my ad rejected, or my ad account restricted?+
Common reasons are claims that break Meta's advertising standards, before-and-after images, wording about personal attributes, restricted products, a mismatched landing page, or unusual payment activity. We review the policy, fix the ad and file an appeal through the right channel.
Can financial or investment businesses advertise on Meta in India?+
Yes, with conditions. Ads about securities and investments shown to people in India need advertiser verification with SEBI registration details, which appear in the ad's disclaimer. Credit and loan ads must also be run under the special ad category, which limits targeting.
Is GST charged on Meta ad spend?+
Yes, 18% GST applies. If you're billed from outside India, GST-registered businesses pay IGST under reverse charge and claim it as input tax credit; if your invoice already includes GST, you claim it from the invoice. Add your GSTIN in Meta's billing settings. Our management fee also attracts 18% GST.
Do you guarantee leads or sales?+
No honest agency can guarantee a fixed number of leads or sales, because results depend on your offer, budget, competition, creative and follow-up. We commit to correct tracking, regular creative testing, weekly optimisation and transparent reports.
Is there a lock-in period?+
No. Plans are monthly. We recommend at least 3 months, so campaigns can learn and we can test enough creatives to find what works.
Can you manage both Meta Ads and Google Ads?+
Yes. Many businesses use Google Ads to catch people already searching, and Meta Ads to create demand and retarget visitors. We can run both with one report and one account manager.
How do I pay for Meta ads?+
You add a payment method in Meta Ads Manager, such as a card, UPI or net banking, and Meta charges your ad spend directly, as prepaid funds or automatic payments. You pay our management fee to IBACT separately, with a GST invoice.
