Platforms such as Moj, Josh and Chingari, which emerged after TikTok was banned in 2020, are showing signs of renewed growth.
According to a Redseer report, the sector has crossed $200 million in revenue, with significant headroom for expansion.

"Platforms like Instagram and YouTube Shorts cater to urban, globalised audiences, leaving a sizable untapped market in smaller cities. Domestic platforms are also innovating with unique monetisation models," said Anirudh A Damani, managing partner at Artha Venture Fund.
