MEDIA FOR BRANDS IN INDIA

- Who really is premium and affluent in India❓

- Where do they reside❓

- Is affluence a mere metro phenomenon ❓

While most of us would believe so, recent data tells a different story 📖

With India 🇮🇳 on the path to becoming a 5 trillion-dollar economy in next couple of years, the affluent Indians are emerging as a distinct & large cohort. The affluent class today is growing 12x faster vis-à-vis overall population. What’s particularly striking is the phenomenal surge in affluence in non-metro markets.

Discretionary spend across categories including leisure travel, premium cars, online shopping amongst others have seen a rapid rise in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities compared to Tier-1 metros.

Premium brands like Mercedes & Starbucks have already built strong retail footprints in the Tier-2 & 3 cities, reflecting the skyrocketing standards of living and consumption habits within the next 40-50 cities.

As a cohort in size, the affluent populace in non-metros today (beyond top 8-10 cities) is larger than metros and brands must look at optimal means to reach out to these audiences to really scale and expand their categories.

PS: In the last slide (6th) the keys are reversed. Metro is 🟡 and non metro is 🔵
