  • Red: Energy, passion, and urgency (e.g., Zomato, Airtel)
  • Blue: Trust, reliability, and professionalism (e.g., SBI, Infosys)
  • Yellow: Optimism, warmth, and affordability (e.g., Swiggy, Reliance Trends)
  • Green: Growth, health, and sustainability (e.g., Dabur, Patanjali)
  • Orange: Creativity, youthfulness, and enthusiasm (e.g., Paytm, Big Bazaar)
  • Purple: Luxury, wisdom, and royalty (e.g., Tanishq, Titan)
