XOR Labs decided to make sense and quantify the social media efforts in India by tracking social media profiles of 100 Indian startups for a period of 3 months—from July 1 to September 30.

Although fundamentals are the same, how social media is managed for an ecommerce has to be different from sexual wellness space. So to make the report more meaningful, they categorized 100 startups into 13 segments—from horizontal ecommerce and food delivery to fashion and fintech.
