Business Standard
|October 27, 2025

However, it is the US-headquartered, artificial intelligence-based search engine application (app) Perplexity, cofounded by Aravind Srinivas and two others and already valued at $20 billion, that seems to have caught the fancy of Indians. It hogged the top slot from October 13 to date — except for one day when it dropped to No.2— and has shown consistent performance through September and October.
