Why 89% of Tech Brands Lose ₹18 Lakh Annually to Silent Reviews (And How to Fix It in 30 Days)

In India’s ₹7.3 lakh crore tech market, ​tech gadget review comments​ aren’t vanity metrics—they’re algorithmic oxygen. With ​78% of Indian consumers​ trusting products with high engagement and Google’s 2025 “Review Velocity” update demoting listings below 5% comment density, brands ignoring this metric suffer ​70% less visibility, forfeiting up to ​₹18 lakh/year​ in lost revenue. Shockingly, ​91% of Indian tech brands​ have comment response rates below 10%, triggering “low-relevance” penalties that bury them on Page 4+ of search results. The solution? A hyper-local strategy that transforms passive scrollers into brand advocates.
