I've read many posts asking users to download Firefox but when a noob like me goes to google play store, it shows Firefox collects user activity, location and other data but for Brave it says that Brave doesn't collect any data or share any data. A company like google must do a thorough investigation before putting an app of their play store. Experts who hold degree in computer science, data science etc and are privacy advocates please explain me why not to use Brave?

It's a valid choice, if it's an informed choice. I recommend privacy guides to look at the trade off of the various options.

It's got a lot of downsides, compared to the better options, but if you need a chromium-based browser it's viable
