The aim of the study is to find out the changing purchase behaviour of Gen Z. It is a mix of secondary and primary study. Fear of missing out is still prevalent among Gen Z. Phone calls are the most common way of communicating with friends and family followed by mobile messaging apps among Gen Z. Instagram is the most often used followed by WhatsApp platform. This is an important contribution to existing research in the post pandemic era. Entertaining content is considered most interesting by people followed by informative content.
