As homes echoed with the sounds of sweeping, dusting and decluttering, markets came alive with shoppers eager to tick off festive wish-lists, setting the stage for what traders expect to be one of the busiest Diwali seasons in recent years. Nagpur: The buzz of Diwali was unmistakable across Nagpur on Sunday.
From premium branded outlets to small neighbourhood shops, clothing retailers reported packed showrooms throughout the day. Several jewellers have also introduced monthly savings schemes, allowing customers to accumulate funds throughout the year and redeem them during the festive season. As expected, garment stores emerged as the biggest attraction. Children’s apparel stores, in particular, saw big crowds as families shopped for festive wardrobes. Consumer preference for branded apparel continued to dominate buying trends. Outlets of leading fashion chains and brands witnessed significant footfall as customers took advantage of festival offers. For many households, Sunday began not in the marketplace but at home, with families undertaking the traditional pre-Diwali cleaning ritual. The tradition is closely linked with Lakshmi Pujan, when homes are decked up to welcome Goddess Lakshmi. However, with gold prices witnessing considerable fluctuations over the past year, the scale of Dhanteras purchases remains a key point of interest.
