India ended with 12 Lions at the 2015 edition of the Cannes Lions, besides a Glass Lions Grand Prix. While a Grand Prix was elusive last year, the total award count in 2015 pales in comparison to last year's 32-Lion haul.
 
In 2015, BBDO India bagged a Grand Prix in the Glass Lions for its 'Touch the pickle' entry for Whisper Sanitary Napkins. The agency also bagged a Glass Lion (equivalent of a Gold) for its entry 'Share the Load' for Ariel Matic in the category's first year. 
 
McCann Worldgroup was the most awarded Indian agency with four Lions, all of which were Silver.
 
Here's a tally by agency:
 
Agency Grand Prix Gold Silver Bronze Total
BBDO 1 1 (Glass)   1 3
McCann     4   4
Grey     1 1 2
Creativeland Asia     1   1
