Summary/Abstract: The aim of the research is to present a comprehensive bibliometric analysis complemented with a perspective of theoretical review, based on the data that incorporates the research papers including the term of frugal innovation from 2010 till October 10, 2019, which clarifies the present-day focus of research in this topic and summarises areas of research. In doing so, we carried out a bibliometric analysis and analysed 238 publications that have been published since 2010 till 2019, along with the theoretical review, based on the insights identified from a group of top-cited articles on frugal innovation. We organised and synthesised 47 papers according to the sector (industry) focus, type/ method of research, country focus, and focus of research. Thus, we estimated the evolution of past research and used the key findings to outline future research pathways.
