What Talking Point Communications does

Talking Point Communications is a privately held, India-based integrated PR and communications agency operating as a unit of the IJCP Group. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in New Delhi with additional offices in Hyderabad and Mumbai, the firm employs between 11 and 50 people and serves a client base of more than 150 organizations spanning 600+ brands across 300+ Indian cities. Its seven core service lines cover Public Relations, Crisis Communication, Digital & Social Media, Creative & Films, Content & Thought Leadership, VC & Founder Communication, and Consumer & D2C Communication, delivered as integrated mandates rather than discrete products.

The agency targets six primary customer segments: Corporate & Enterprise, Startups & Investors, Consumer/FMCG/D2C, Health/Pharma/Life Sciences, Technology & Digital Businesses, and Social Impact/Education/Public Interest. Named clients include bigbasket (a 10-year relationship), LiveLoveLaugh, NTT Data Center, Elda Health, 10club, Indusface, Pee Safe, Furlenco, and RPSG Capital Ventures. The go-to-market is sales-led, direct engagement, with 70% of new business reportedly sourced through referrals and 90% client retention cited as performance metrics. As an IPREX partner agency, the firm also accesses global mandates through an international network of independent communication firms.

Talking Point Communications is bootstrapped and founder-led by Naina Aggarwal Ahuja, with Ankit Ahuja as CMO and a senior team spanning client relations and account leadership. Revenue is generated through retainer mandates (recurring) and project-based assignments (professional services), with pricing customized per engagement and not publicly disclosed. There is no disclosed external funding, no AI/ML product capability, and no reported revenue figure in the available data.
