Hey Sharmasarthak,
The medium of stomach are highly acidic due to the release of HCL at the entry of food.
The acidity is required for conversion of Prorennin to rennin in infants and protrypsin to trypsin

Your stomach secretes hydrochloric acid, but the pH of your stomach isn't necessarily the same as the pH of the acid.
The pH of your stomach varies, from 1-2 up to 4-5. When you eat, the stomach releases enzymes called proteases as well as hydrochloric acid to aid in digestion. By itself, the acid doesn't really do much for digestion, but the proteases that cleave proteins work best in an acidic environment or low pH, so after a high-protein meal, your stomach pH may drop to as low as 1 or 2.
