I have surveyed 0n 127 resp0ndents wh0 are staying in Delhi, t0 identify the relati0nship between c0nsumer buying behavi0ur and advertisement. The maj0r finding 0f the study after analyzing all data is that there is a p0sitive impact 0f advertising 0n c0nsumer’s buying behavi0ur and advertising plays a vital r0le t0 kn0w ab0ut a new pr0duct. It is f0und that there is n0 relati0nship between age 0f the resp0ndents and level 0f impact 0f advertisement and there is n0 relati0nship between the gender 0f the resp0ndents and the impact 0f advertising 0n them.
