14 Jan 2026

Mumbai, January 14, 2026 – Praxis Global Alliance, a next-generation management consulting firm, unveiled its flagship whitepaper, Consumer Health and Lifestyle: Personalization, Performance and Purpose, at the Ambit NextGen Summit. The report provides a deep dive into how India's generational shifts and digital expansion are redefining consumer behavior and the expectations shaping today's marketplace. 

The launch was attended by brand leaders, digital marketers, and consumer-tech founders exploring the future of "phygital" experiences, biometric personalization, and purpose-driven retail. 

Key Highlights: 

  • Vernacular internet users reached 868M in 2024, growing at a 19% CAGR. 

  • 1.5-2x higher social engagement observed for regional language content over English. 

  • Preventive wellness market to triple by 2030, reaching US$532B. 

  • Gen Z influences US$2.6T in annual consumer spend globally. 

  • 80% of Gen Z consumers are keen on AR-enabled shopping experiences. 

  • LTV-led growth strategies prioritize repurchase behavior and long-term advocacy over single transactions. 

 

This research outlines how the industry is shifting toward outcome-driven and holistic consumer ecosystems. With personalization now moving into clinical precision powered by biometric data, brands are evolving from mass-product providers to experience-led enterprises driven by authenticity and real-time connection. 

Commenting on the report launch, Akshat Gupta, Practice Leader at Praxis Global Alliance, said, "India is witnessing a seismic generational shift. The expectations of today's consumer go beyond utility—they seek meaning, clinical performance, and hyper-personalization. Our latest report unpacks this transformation and offers a bold framework for brands to stay culturally relevant and commercially agile in an experience-led economy."
