Is it illegal / unconstitutional to boycott economically?

Dear Sir/Madam,

Recently, I saw a video posted in Facebook,
in which someone is encouraging NOT TO PURCHASE from some group of people.

Is it Illegal and/Or Unconstitutional to boycott a group of people economically?

Can anyone please clarify !
If it is Illegal or Unconstitutional, what are the sections that are applicable?

Thanks and Regards

1. Boycotting any product does NOT amount to boycotting any person or group or company. Hence no legal action is sustainable.

However, an action lies if the appeal for boycott is based on caste or communal considerations..
