Impact of TikTok Ban in India

India banned TikTok in June 2020, leading to a surge in short-form video platform competition. Other tech giants like Instagram and YouTube quickly capitalized on the gap left by TikTok, launching features like reels and shorts in India. This competition created opportunities for smaller platforms to enter the market, resulting in creators being spread across various apps and facing challenges in maintaining their content presence.
