Guruji will also be launching the same service in other important languages in the coming months.

Hindi being the national language and the most spoken language in India is the second most spoken language in the world. Around 500 million people speak Hindi in India and abroad, and the total number of people who understand the language is estimated to be around 800 million. More than 180 million people in India gaze at Hindi language as their mother tongue and 300 million use it as a second language.

Anurag Dod, Co-Founder & CEO, Guruji.com said “What sets us apart is our focus on the Indian market and the Indian consumer. China has become a big internet economy because of content availability and accessibility in local language. If India were to grow at the same rate, we need more focus on vernacular. It’s only then we would have truly empowered the Indian consumers”.

Gaurav Mishra, Co-Founder & COO, Guruji.com explains “90% of internet search queries are local in nature, and Guruji.com will deliver better search results than any other search engine in these instances. The next wave of growth for internet in India will be fuelled by the growth of vernacular content and the way it is accessed by consumers across the country and the Indian language  search engine from guruji is a  step  in that direction”.
