Published on May 2, 2017 at 9:38 am by Sneha Shah in Lists, News

The 15 most popular Facebook groups in India make it convenient for people to share their views with like-minded people on specific subjects. These groups are formed around a common interest or cause, bringing together members who can share their thoughts through images, videos, stories and more. Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) has become the preferred mode of communication between family, friends and colleagues all around the world and many Facebook groups are being used in interesting and meaningful ways, while some are formed just for the heck of it.

For example, many Facebook groups in India are formed simply with the aim of having the largest number of members, without any particular common interest or purpose. However, there are many other groups formed to support a social cause, for the well-being of pets, or to inspire other members. Iceland’s “GSystir” or Good Sister, with 50,000 members, focuses on positivity among women. Topics like parenting, food and sports are the most popular topics for groups.

The 15 most popular Facebook groups in India provide useful insight and support to members. For example, a travel group may impart much-needed information regarding visa formalities or travel itineraries which would have otherwise taken ample time to research on the part of the information seeker. There are numerous groups discussing topics ranging from simple household ideas like sharing one’s favorite recipes to forums discussing major political issues in India. Anyone with a common interest can send a request to join a group, pending the admin’s approval. These groups have also proven to be extremely helpful for many who are stuck at crossroads in their lives by guiding them in the right direction and helping them move forward. There is always someone available to listen to people’s woes and help them come up with the best possible solution.

Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) reported having 80 million Indian users per month as of November 2016. According to a survey, more than 60% of Indian employees (of which over 80% browse Facebook) tend to spend more than 30% of their time on social media even during work hours. There are various statistics available that suggest the rising popularity of Facebook not only in India but also worldwide. The average person spends around an hour on Facebook each day, which means about 1/16th of the average person’s waking time is spent on Facebook daily. Today, the children and young adults are glued to their mobile phones and are in the habit of checking their phone just about every minute. According to other research, it was found that we touch our smartphones around 2,617 times a day on average, and unsurprisingly, Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) accounted for more of those ‘touches’ than any other app or service. Given the rising popularity of Facebook groups in India, the company has rolled out a Group discover feature, which is also available in the U.S and U.K.
