AHMEDABAD, India -- Ahmedabad, India; Oct 21, 2013: After USA raised new debt ceiling, the world economy (Indian economy in particular) has breathed a sigh of relief. Since our NRI bloke is vastly spread across the States (where economy was in topsy-turvy), Indian e-retailers were apprehensive of happy Diwali 2013. But now the dark clouds are dispersed and new rays of hope visible on the horizon. So Indian online shopping portals are hopeful of good business from Indians living abroad, who normally send Diwali gifts to India every year.
This year, Indian e-commerce players expected heavy rush of orders from NRIs immediately after Navratri, but they were disappointed as sick US market didn't show any sign of recovery till recently. But from now onwards to Diwali festival, they are enthusiastic about the sale; moreover, last four-five days ahead of Diwali are crucial in terms of orders for Diwali gifts.
Speaking on the overall market scenario, Sridhar SR, Head – Business Marketing, Infibeam.com, shares, "Every year, our website receives large number of orders of Diwali gifts online from Indians living in USA, Canada, UK and other European countries; but this year, it was a different story. Though we left no stone unturned to woo customers, economic crises dampen the shopping spirit of NRIs. However, we now look forward to more orders pouring in as the crises are dealt with and economy is improving."
About customer interaction, Sridhar informs, "We have created a dedicated page – Diwali Offers – for our customers, where we have uploaded all popular categories of products like Mobile Accessories, Tablets, Portable Electronics, Cameras, Computers & Accessories, Gaming & Consoles, Home Entertainment, Home Appliances, Kitchen Appliances, Android Mobiles, Books, Movies, Music, Sweets and Apparels.
Summing up, Sridhar says, "Recession or rise, Indians tend to celebrate festivals with spirit and cheer. Slowdown may dispirit for some time, but gradually we forget everything and join the festivity with enthusiasm. Now there is a strong reason to welcome the festivities with open arms. We invite our customers to buy Diwali gifts and send their Diwali gifts to India from any part of the world. And if customers wish to send gifts from India to any other country, we will be delighted to serve them with best services."
Diwali is a festival of lights and victory of good over evil; it's time to celebrate beginning of the year, and while you are welcoming the new year with your family, exchange of gifts for Diwali is quite natural. Price tag on the gift box is immaterial; it is your bond that matters most. Happy Diwali!
