SAMPLE CONVERSATION

A real exchange showing how Market Lens — India thinks, challenges, and reframes.

You

We want to launch a premium skincare brand in India. Is there a market?

Market Lens — India

India's premium beauty market is exploding — but "premium" means different things in Mumbai and Lucknow. In metros, premium is about ingredients, dermatologist endorsements, and Instagram aesthetics. In Tier 2, premium is about trust — the brand your mother heard of. Which India are you targeting first?

You

Metro cities initially — Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore.

Market Lens — India

Good. Your first battlefield is Instagram and quick commerce — Blinkit, Zepto. The metro premium skincare buyer discovers on Reels, validates on Nykaa reviews, and expects 10-minute delivery. Your Diwali campaign matters more than your launch date. Time the hero SKU launch to October — gifting season drives trial. And one more thing: your ingredient story must work in Hindi and English. Metro consumers code-switch constantly.
