Disclosed is a method and a system for identifying nascent topic related to a subject matter. The method comprises receiving a request associated with a context related to subject matter from a user, analyzing the request to determine at least one topic related to the context, determining an activity factor related to each of the context and the topic from at least one data record related therein, normalizing the activity factor related to each of the topic, analyzing the normalized scores of each of the topic to determine a short-term average and a long-term average normalized score for each of the topic and calculating a difference therein, determining a change in the differences over a specific time period, and identifying the topic associated with a sustained increase in the difference over a predefined time duration within the specific time period as the nascent topic related to the subject matter.
