The high growth of population and digitalisation, the current economy is growing at a faster pace to fulfil their needs both personal and psychological. Individual’s decisions are mainly based on the available information and by considering peer needs. The use of inorganic products with pesticides, added preservatives, coloring etc had badly affected the health of consumers. The concern for nutritional safety has increased because of the improved modes of education.

The current study evaluates the secondary sources of data to study the growth rate of organic industry in India and in the world.
