Gaming, online lending and e-commerce apps gain popularity in India

Indus App Bazaar, India’s largest indigenous app store, which leverages the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to cater to the needs of its 60M+ users, has revealed the names of some of the most popular apps on its platform. Keeping with current trends, social networking and gaming apps unsurprisingly top the list. Social networking apps, with their simple, easy-to-use interfaces, have become hugely popular. Gaming, too, is fast gaining popularity among India’s smartphone users – this is evinced in the large number of downloads of gaming apps. E-commerce and on-demand apps continue to grow strongly as increasing numbers of Indian consumers discover the convenience of purchasing and ordering stuff online. Online lending apps are seeing a fair bit of traction, too, among college students and newly working professionals.
