CNBC has introduced a refreshed brand identity across its India network, marking a significant shift in its visual and strategic direction. The new identity was officially unveiled at the CNBC-TV18 21st India Business Leader Awards (IBLA) held in Mumbai on March 14, 2026-one of the network’s most prestigious platforms celebrating leadership in India’s business ecosystem.
This rebranding represents one of CNBC’s most notable visual transformations in recent years, aligning the network with a more modern, digital-first approach. The updated identity has been rolled out across all platforms within the CNBC cluster in India, including CNBC-TV18, CNBC-TV18 Prime, CNBCTV18.com, CNBC Awaaz, and CNBC Bajar, ensuring a cohesive and contemporary look across television and digital touchpoints.
At the heart of this transformation is a redesigned logo that moves away from CNBC’s iconic multi-coloured peacock to a more minimal and refined aesthetic. A key feature of the new design is a blue upward-pointing arrow embedded within the letter ‘N’, symbolising growth, progress, and forward momentum-values that align closely with the brand’s positioning in the business and financial news space.
The refresh reflects CNBC’s intent to evolve with changing audience consumption patterns while strengthening its presence across connected and digital platforms. With this move, the network signals its readiness for the next phase of growth, reinforcing its role as a trusted and future-focused voice in business journalism.
The new identity goes live across all CNBC India platforms starting March 30, 2026.
