Valentine's Day is around the corner and there is a lot of hope among Indian youth to match with somebody who they like. Interestingly, according to a new poll, they also want to go on budget-friendly dates rather than expensive ones. Indian dating and friendship app, QuackQuack, ran a poll among 15,000 users from tier-1 and tier-2 cities, both GenZ and millennials, on how they prefer to celebrate their Valentine's Day. The study throws light on the V-day trends and how the day of love impacts the online dating industry. The survey participants range between 18 to 32 and comprise primarily students and working professionals.
QuackQuack's founder and CEO, Ravi Mittal, commented, "Every year, we see a spike in the number of users during this time of the year. And this is also the time when people look beyond romance. Among the 22 million users, almost 33 per cent of the users seek friendship on the app. There's also an 8 per cent increase in virtual dates on the day of love."
