Just days ahead of Diwali, online retailers are making the most of the festive period in India. While Amazon started its Great Indian Festival on Wednesday, its chief competitor Flipkart is also hosting a Diwali-special sale Thursday onwards.
Flipkart Festive Dhamaka Days is the online retailer's latest attempt to attract shoppers, only days after it completed its successful Big Billion Days sale. For those who missed the earlier sale, which offered steep discounts on a wide range of products, including clothing, electronics, laptops and smartphones, can take advantage of Flipkart's Festive Dhamaka Days sale.
Like other festive sales, Flipkart Festive Dhamaka Sale is a limited period offer. It started on Thursday, October 5 and runs through October 8. During this time, shoppers can get discounts and deals on mobiles and tablets, TVs and appliances, electronics and accessories, fashion and lifestyle, and home and furniture.
Before we list the best deals you can get on Flipkart during Festive Dhamaka Days sale, Axis Bank customers can fetch an additional 10 percent cashback by using their debit and credit cards. Take a look at the best smartphone deals handpicked from the cluster.
