They moved into distribution channels nationals ignored (online-first, modern retail, D2C), and by the time the nationals noticed, insurgent brands already owned shelf adjacency and repeat buyers. The play: map where your category's repeat buyers are clustering NOW (not where they were three years ago), and position there before nationals wake up. Insurgent brands in India did not fight nationals on their home turf; they built new turf.\nWhat that means for you: the insurgent brands won not by undercutting price but by owning customer intent faster than nationals could adapt.
