Dating in India is more conservative than it might be in some other countries, especially because arranged marriages are still common for some couples. Since marriage is the goal of most people in a relationship, it tends to happen quicker, sometimes within a few months or a year of a couple meeting.

Does India have a dating culture?

Currently, dating apps reach 2.2% of Indias total population, with projections of 3.6% by 2024, according to industry surveys. Before the internet, when dating culture was nonexistent in India, youngsters would meet the opposite sex mostly with the intention to marry.
