Why This Sale Matters
For many, the Amazon Great Indian Festival marks the unofficial start of festive-season shopping—kind of the prelude to Diwali. Retailers pull out big discounts, sellers try to clear inventory, and customers expect value for money. Also, the timing aligns with recent regulatory/tax changes (GST etc.), which sometimes affects pricing. (The Economic Times)
